[STUMP] Bug report: No keyboard focus

[Ernesto Alfonso]

Switching from a certrain window 'A' back to emacs (via the default emacs 
command) fails to return keyboard focus to emacs, despite emacs being the 
(current-window). I don't really know which window, if any, has keyboard focus 
at that point. Here's the definition of the default emacs command:

(defcommand emacs () ()
  "Start emacs unless it is already running, in which case focus it."
  (run-or-raise "emacs" '(:class "Emacs")))

This does not happen with any Window A. Window A is a (any) Matlab figure 
window. Its (list-window-properties) is included below:

("_NET_FRAME_EXTENTS            : 0, 0, 0, 0"
  "_NET_WM_DESKTOP               : 0" "WM_STATE                      : Normal"
  "_NET_WM_ALLOWED_ACTIONS       : _NET_WM_ACTION_CHANGE_DESKTOP, 
_NET_WM_ACTION_FULLSCREEN, _NET_WM_ACTION_CLOSE"
  "_NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE           : _NET_WM_WINDOW_TYPE_NORMAL"
  "_MOTIF_WM_HINTS               : (3 1 1 0 0)"
  "_NET_WM_STATE                 : "
  "WM_HINTS                      : (3 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0)"
  "_NET_WM_ICON                  : 48, 48, 4278190080, 4278190080, 4278190080, 
4278190080, 4278190080, 4278190080, 4278190080, 4278190080, 4278190080, 
4278190080, 4278190080, 4278190080, 4278190080..."
  "_NET_WM_PID                   : 9188"
  "WM_CLIENT_MACHINE             : \"computer\""
  "WM_PROTOCOLS                  : WM_TAKE_FOCUS, WM_DELETE_WINDOW"
  "WM_CLASS                      : \"sun-awt-X11-XFramePeer\", 
\"com-mathworks-util-PostVMInit\""
  "WM_CLIENT_LEADER              : WM_CLIENT_LEADER"
  "_NET_WM_ICON_NAME             : \"Figure 1\""
  "WM_ICON_NAME                  : \"Figure 1\""
  "_NET_WM_NAME                  : \"Figure 1\""
  "WM_NAME                       : \"Figure 1\""
  "WM_NORMAL_HINTS               : (525 1079 48 560 475 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 
1)")

 I don't have time to track this bug down further, but it is annoying. This is 
possibly related to another bug, in which raising a window within a split frame 
that contains another window in the maximized state, does not raise it above 
the maximed window.

Any ideas for tracking this down further?

Thanks, 

Ernesto
