From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040518 Firefox/0.8 Description of problem: Hi. I tried to DND something from a background maximized window into a foreground window, and the source window went into foreground, hiding the target window. The point of spatial nautilus is to make DND easy. Therefore this is a bug. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): nautilus-2.6.0-5 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. See Summary Additional info:
30+ days, still not fixed and no reply.
Actually I guess DND from any window brings it into foreground which is even worse. 50+ days, no reply.
This is a window manager issue. Nautilus is not what is moving the window to the front. This is not a simple thing to solve, as X doesn't currently have a way that lets you fix it in a good way.
Assigning to metacity, as there might be some way to solve this in the window manager. hp? This is a common problem, is there any way to solve it?
