Hi all The zenity man page says that "zenity tries to find the terminal window it was launched from, and stays on top of that. You can disable it by unsetting the WINDOWID variable."
I tried and this works fine for me: eog -f background.jpg & sleep1 # (to let eog find time to show the background image) WINDOWID= # yes: = and then nothing zenity <something> This makes zenity appear "on top" of the background image. You may have other issues, but this works for me :D -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to zenity in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/272083 Title: Zenity windows appear underneath others Status in Mythbuntu, Ubuntu derivative focused upon MythTV: Fix Released Status in Zenity: Won't Fix Status in “zenity” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: Binary package hint: zenity Current Intrepid, zenity 2.23.3.1-0ubuntu1.
