I think I've discovered the problem: looks like stickynotes is listening for the '_NET_WM_USER_TIME' property to change on the "NAUTILUS_DESKTOP_WINDOW_ID" window. In theory, this should happen when clicking on the desktop window (among other causes, of course). The problem is that the property doesn't seem to change when clicking on the desktop window. Please notice that no "ButtonPress" event is ever generated by clicking on the desktop. Only "FocusIn" and "FocusOut" events are generated when clicking the desktop. This can be checked using "xev", for example.
What I haven't found is the cause. Maybe another application is installing an event filter on the desktop window due to some configuration problem. I don't know :?? The worst problem, though, is that I don't have the slightest idea about a solution. I'ts been more than 7 years since I wrote a Window Manager and had to mess with events, desktop windows, etc. Looking for "_NET_WM_USER_TIME" property changes doesn't seem like a good idea, but maybe the first approach should be an investigation about why the desktop window doesn't update that property when clicking the window. Any ideas?
