Description Cor Nouws 2012-01-20 22:55:37 UTC 
- start with e.g. a writer document open
- File > Open, PW protected file
- password, OK
  > the opens in the background, visible on the task bar

should be there on the front, of course

I am running Ubuntu 11.04 with the Gnome2 desktop
Comment 1 Cor Nouws 2012-05-01 03:38:59 UTC 
Now with Ubuntu 12.04 and Unity, the file is completely invisible, untill navigating to it with Dash / Alt-Tabbing
Comment 2 Cor Nouws 2012-05-01 03:46:56 UTC 
this happens on 3.5.3.1 and on a daily version 3.6.0alpha0+ Build ID: 87897ea

This sounds more like a Ubuntu problem than a LibO bug.

Might well be, Marcus.
OOo had the same problems years back on Windows. Of course there's a lot of complicated stuff going on in window-managers...

Getting presenting windows and stacking right (pwrt. avoiding focus stealing) is rather hard - it is interesting that this only happens for the password case (?).

Bjoern - can you find someone in Canonical that can help us debug / unwind this most-annoying bug ? :-)
Comment 6 Joel Madero 2013-02-13 21:37:22 UTC 
Moving this one to 3.6 MAB as it's only developers involved so clearly it belongs here.
Comment 7 Michael Meeks 2013-05-08 15:36:15 UTC 
Bjoern - any ideas here ? seems like a clear-cut Unity bug, I'm tempted to close 'NOTOURBUG' ;-)
