28.0.50; Can't unselect minibuffer window |
Date: |
Sun, 08 Nov 2020 13:28:29 +0100 |
Hello,
since some days, I experience the following issue: when I call
(read-from-minibuffer "Enter something: ")
and select a different window, the minibuffer window automatically gets
re-selected after a short period of time.
I did not yet figure out how to reproduce for emacs -Q; with the default
settings, it is not reproducible there.
With my setup, the issue gets fixed when I do
(setq minibuffer-follows-selected-frame nil)
I CC Alan hoping 2ecbf4cfae, "Allow minibuffer to stay in its original
frame. Tidy up this area." is related and he can help so that I can get
around finding a recipe or digging further (well, it's Sunday).
TIA,
Michael.

Sorry I havn't been in touch again. I got tied up with another problem
of switching frames, which I eventually solved by putting
(redirect-frame-focus frame nil)
into my site-start.el at a critical point.
I say this bug should now be closed, and thanks for raising it. In
fact, I am closing it with this post. It is good that the patch for bug
#44502 solved this one too.
