Description Paolo Benvenuto 2013-04-29 08:00:17 UTC
Reproduce it:
- in libreoffice, open the styles and formatting window (F11)
- close libreoffice
- open nautilus/files, and open an odt file
  OR 
  run "libreoffice" from terminal and then, from LO, begin a new document
  OR
  run libreoffice with an odt doc as argument

Result: neither libreoffice main window nor style little windows have focus
Comment 1 Paolo Benvenuto 2013-04-30 08:21:00 UTC
Also when switching (with gnome alt-tab) to an open libreoffice instance with an open document and the style window visible: the user get the window visible but without focus

Never confirmed by QA, so setting to NEEDINFO.

Paolo: is this still a problem with LibO 4.4.x?
Comment 4 Paolo Benvenuto 2015-03-24 13:17:01 UTC
I can confirm it with 4.3.3.2 430m0(Build:2)
Comment 5 Buovjaga 2015-03-26 07:18:58 UTC
Could reproduce by launching LibO, undocking style window, closing LibO, reopening LibO, starting new document -> style window steals focus - unable to start writing without clicking document background first.

No focus problem with alt-tab.

Lowered priority as this is very minor and I guess it's pretty rare to use style window undocked these days with the sidebar.

Scientific Linux 7 64-bit with Gnome 3.

Version: 4.4.1.2
