This said, I agree that I'd have expected the window-manager to take > care of such things (basically the window-manager shouldn't pass on > a mouse-1 click to the application if it was used to change focus). I could have said: However I might just want to select that window to scroll down it (I don't use scrollbars). This would require window focus while the above might only require frame focus. I didn't give thought to the type of focus, just that there were times where I got caught out following a link that I didn't want to follow. Nick
