bug#28481: 26.0.50; other-frame and matchbox window manager

[Andrés Ramírez]

I have had a problem for a long time. on my phone (n900) other-frame
does not raise the next frame. But It does when modifying the function other-frame:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
+    (raise-frame frame)
    (select-frame-set-input-focus frame)))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

I am not sure. How this should be fixed.

Perhaps with a var like 'focus-follows-mouse'.

Best Regards

This is a bit surprising since the respective code has not changed in
all these years including the call for ‘raise-frame’ in
‘select-frame-set-input-focus’.  I have no idea why calling
‘raise-frame’ before calling ‘select-frame’ should have any impact on
this.  Closing anyway.

Thanks, martin
