Bug Description

I'm running cairo-dock 2.1.2-4 in FC11 on gnome 2.26 with openbox 3.4.8 as the WM. When I call the quick launch dialog with my keybinding it pops up; however, it does not automatically take focus, I have to use the mouse and click on it.

I downloaded the tarball and installed the newest version as told in the INSTALL file, however the problem persists.

maybe it's your WM that doesn't allow window to take the focus.
If you're running Compiz, this can be set up in its config panel (look for
"focus prevention")

it's probably been fixed, because I can't reproduce it.

This bug was fixed in the package cairo-dock - 3.2.1-0ubuntu1

---------------
cairo-dock (3.2.1-0ubuntu1) raring; urgency=low

  * New upstream release. (bug-fix version) LP: #1168839
  * Detailed Upstream ChangeLog:
    - Dialogues:
      - Fixed a small bug with the default icon
      - Force taking the focus when the dialogue has an user widget, since
        some WM prevent focus steal LP: #531152
    - Gnome-Shell: the dash was hidden all the time
    - GUI:
      - Docks list: only list main docks and subdocks and not launchers and
        applications with subdocks (when there are windows with the same
        class and if these icons are regrouped into a subdock)
      - Menu and GUI: Move to another dock: if it s a container: Do not add
        subdocks that are contained in this container (to avoid loop:
        subdock1->subdock2->subdock1)
      - Simple: Plugins: Help applet was not listed
      - Simple: Config: force displaying the config widget (the config panel
        was empty with some older versions of GTK)
    - Help applet:
      - This applet didn t have any preview icon file
    - Icon:
      - Label: If we don t want to show label, keep info about the font: it
        can be used by other applets (e.g. Clock)
      - Windows thumbnails: fixed a small bug that made the thumbnail
        unavailable the first time the window is minimized
    - Init & Themes: deactivate the option Show Windows Thumbnail in the
      current theme.
      - This option can provoke annoying bugs with other applications the
        desktop (e.g. Gedit or Nautilus displayed corrupted icons when using
        a smooth scroll)
      - It seems this bug is due to the video drivers and it s fixed with
        the latest stable version of these drivers (but which is not
        available with most distributions)
      - Note: It s still possible to re-enable this option from the config
        panel
    - Taskbar: Fixed a possible crash in a convoluted scenario (if there are
      a few untitled windows with the same empty class)
    - X11:
      - Fixed a crash when using Xinerama with multi-monitors
    - Translations: Imported translations files from Launchpad
  * debian/control:
    - Bumped Cairo-Dock Plug-Ins versions
