Cannot place another window on top of KiCad (Linux X11)
Description
On at least Debian 10 x86_64 with X11 display, KiCad 6 aggressively steals focus; no setting to disable. I haven't tried Wayland.
Steps to reproduce
- Install 6.0.1 via Flatpack.
- Open 6.0.1 schmatic or pcb editor
- Open a non-kicad non-fullscreen window (eg. calculator, notes, etc) and place it over the center of the KiCad 6 window
- Move your mouse to a corner of the screen, and then attempt to click on the non-kicad window by moving the mouse towards it over kicad (no touchscreens, that's cheating
🙃 ) - KiCad stole focus and you can't access the non-kicad window without minimizing kicad first.
- Look in settings for way to disable this
- File issue
