usability: online_update gtk: application popups steal focus from active window
Last modified: 2007-11-07 07:56:29 UTC
The new yast online updater pops up several windows while getting the current updates. When another window has the focus (is the active window) while yast is processing, every popup window from the updater gets the focus (steals the focus from the active window). That is very annoying, because keys you type are sent to the wrong window. You cannot expect the user so sit idle around while Yast takes its time to think about updates (yes, it still takes too long). So far I know that bad behavior only for automatic MS-Windows updates. Please fix!
