Bug 140547 – fluxbox can not change workspace after closing gimp

• Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Alexander Graf 2006-07-15 12:49:30 UTC]

reproducible: always

steps to reproduce:
1. start gimp
2. open a file or create a new
3. close gimp
Now I can only change the workspace by clicking on the arrows, not by pressing Alt+F<workspace-number>. After changing the workspace by clicking, I can change it by keyboard again.

fluxbox version: 0.9.14-r2
gimp version: 2.2.12

Please post your fluxbox and gimp versions, and attach your .fluxbox/init file. I can't reproduce this here.

[Comment 2 Alexander Graf 2006-07-15 14:08:40 UTC]

Created attachment 91827 [details]
~/.fluxbox/init

fluxbox version: 0.9.14-r2
gimp version: 2.2.12

but the versions I have already posted.

i have just found out that
1. it only always does not works if I open a picture
2. it only works does not on workspace "three"
3. I can switch the workspace again, if I open the menu.

[Comment 5 Alexander Graf 2006-07-22 12:13:42 UTC]

The same problem with gnome-terminal:

1. go on workspace 3
2. start gnome-terminal
3. press F1 for help
4. there should be an error message "There was an error launching the default action command associated with this location." without it it would probably not work
5. close gnome-terminal directly without closing the error message first

Now I have the same symptoms like with gimp. I'll search for other gtk+ applications with this phenomen ;)

This seems to be fixed in the current subversion version, but I have not tested it with any other versions.

[Comment 7 endrazine 2006-10-03 17:04:33 UTC]

Couldn't reproduce that bug
