hello all,
i opened http://xquartz.macosforge.org/trac/ticket/636 back in september
and jeremyhu suggested i write here to try and get the issue addressed.
from the ticket:
--
ever since upgrading from 2.7.2 to 2.7.3, i now see X11.app stop bringing
it's windows to the foreground when switching back to it. this doesn't
happen immediately. if i restart X11.app, things work for a while, but then
eventually break. once broken, the bad behavior is reproducible every time.
i only run one X application (Visual SlickEdit). using the <CMD>-2 keyboard
shortcut will bring the window back to the foreground. sometimes, like
right now, that won't even work and i'll need to minimize the window and
i'll need to use Window -> Bring All to Front to get it to come back up.
--
and:
--
another data point: exiting and restarting the X application is another way
to work around the problem (presumably temporarily)
--
help?
tia,
marc
