Hi.

I am using fvwm 2.4.16. Whenever a Workrave popup window shows up, it steals the
keyboard input.

I tried enabling and disabling the "Block user input" option without any success.

I am using SloppyFocus in my fvwm configuration. I tried setting
GrabFocusTransientOff for Workrave, but it didn't change anything either.

Regards,

Hugo

Using the debian default fvwm configuration, I get the normal behaviour: The
workrave windows (both warning and break window) do not get the focus and the
focussed window stil gets all the keystrokes. I can image that if the break
window appears on the location of the mousepointer, fvwm gives workrave's window
the focus. I this the case? If not, could you attache you .fvwmrc to this bug?

Indeed, the default fvwm configuration of Debian works fine. Yet, mine doesn't,
and trying to tweak different settings (Workrave's style,
SloppyFocus/MouseFocus, etc.) didn't change their interaction.

I fixed the problem. I'm keeping the bug open until we are sure this fix didn't
break the windows version....
