[Bug 46036] AmaroK does not gain focus when it is dragged and dropped to

[kko]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: amarok

Is this an AmaroK bug or KDE Windowing system bug?

With window focus setting set to "Focus Follows Mouse", AmaroK window
does not gain focus when files are dragged and dropped to it (from
Desktop or a file browser).

This can be annoying, if you e.g. press Del (to delete a song in
AmaroK's playlist) after the d-n-d operation, only to find out that the
Del -action is relayed to your Desktop or File Browser (e.g. Konqueror).
The Del -action can then cause your files to be deleted or "moved to
trash", with or without confirmation, according to your file removal
settings.

After the d-n-d, when you further move mouse on the AmaroK window, it
still doesn't get focus. Only when you move your mouse away from the
AmaroK window and then back does the player gain focus.

** Affects: amarok (Ubuntu)
       Severity: Normal
       Priority: (none set)
