Title: Windows Focus(?) Issue on Ubuntu (8/12 commit)
Post by: anthnich on August 13, 2015, 04:56:56 pm

https://github.com/SFML/SFML/commit/561eb82f14e77f3c9b9e6bd50e59971eef1e9bda

This commit I believe is causing a problem. Running my program, the window will fade to black & white in Ubuntu if you idle for a few seconds. The 8/4 commit prior does not have this problem.

I cannot provide a code example, but I'm certain you can easily replicate it.

Here's a shot of my desktop w/ the fade problem (8/12 commit build).

And here's what the window is supposed to look like (8/4 commit build).

Some background:

* I request focus post window creation, so requesting focus does nothing.
* When I click in the window, it does not fade back in. It remains black & white regardless. Color never comes back.
* None of my code has changed in between each SFML commit above. What worked before no longer works.

If you need more info, I'll provide what I can.

Same issue as here (http://en.sfml-dev.org/forums/index.php?topic=18803.0). WM ping got messed up in Xlib event queue patch. Will fix.

Should be fixed with this (https://github.com/SFML/SFML/tree/bugfix/wm_ping).

This appears to have fixed the problem. Thanks!
