Description Alex Petrov 2018-03-21 10:09:14 CET
Applications can't get focus if some application was closed while dropdown terminal displaying.

Step to reproduce:
1. Open some application like thunar, firefox, gimp etc.
2. Execute xfce4-terminal --drop-down
3. Close application

Note: It doesn't happens if to close gedit, gnome-calculator and some other gnome applications.

Hi Alex,
I'm not sure I got the problem - what applications cannot get focus?
Is this problem similar to bug #13396, or is this something different?

That's fine, thanks for the confirmation.

I can reproduce the bug, but I wasn't able to figure out the reason so far. May be related to how the WM handles drop-down window, but I have no idea what should be changed in order to resolve the problem. :(

Unfortunately my knowledges is not enough to help you to resolve the problem. But I have to note that closing the gnome's apps (gedit, calc, disks and so on) doesn't trigger that behaviour. Maybe (just a guess) it somehow connected with window decoration?

In addition: it is unnecessary have to be closing. it can be either maximizing or minimizing or just mouse down on these three buttons and then moving cursor out.
