Hi folks,
I've been using VueScan with (Open)SuSE Linux for many years now without encountering any major problems.
However, since my last two VueScan updates I detect a strange and, quite frankly, pretty irritating behavior: Whereas I was used to letting my scanner do its work while checking emails or typing letters on a different virtual desktop, the VueScan window now always grabs the focus after a split second so that I cannot do anything else while scanning.
Before I pester Ed Hamrick with my problem, I thought I might just as well ask you guys if you had any similar issues with VueScan and your operating systems.
Thanks a lot for your feedback!
Michael

I do not use vuescan and neither workspaces, but first I would check if vuescan has enabled an option like "always on top" and any other option related to focus. If you use KDE, take a look to the the "focus" section in the window behavior settings, here is a link to the documentation showing all the possible settings and their meaning: docs.kde.org/trunk5/en/kde-workspace/kcontrol/windowbehaviour/index.html I do not use KDE since version 3.5.10, but as an example, in XFCE there is an option called "activate focus stealing prevention" in the window manager section. |

Just found it (I do use XFCE). Thanks, Ariel!
I will check this out when I use VueScan the next time. |
