Re: [Fwd: App loses focus when menu hovers over another apps window]

[Matt Rice]

I cannot reproduce this with my patched windowmaker,
but i believe it is the same bug, it only happens when
an app has no windows but the menu open. (like ViewPDF
when it starts up) 

which is why you won't see it with some apps like
gorm.

patch to windowmaker here.
