@Marco I am thinking about a fix for this: * Add a setting to change the current behavior (e.g. Remember viewport focus) * Before changing viewport save the currently focused window * When coming back to a viewport instead of focusing the default window do: i) if the new setting is enabled try to restore the focus (if the window is still there) ii) else fallback to the default behavior (focusDefaultWindow)
I want to know your opinion on this approach before starting the implementation. Do you think it makes sense to implement this in core (src/) or is it rather specific to wall plugin and should be implemented there (along with the setting in wall plugin settings)? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of DX Packages, which is subscribed to unity in Ubuntu.
