List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: Xref: quimby.gnus.org gmane.emacs.devel:1640 X-Report-Spam: http://spam.gmane.org/gmane.emacs.devel:1640 I checked the behaviour on CDE and it is easily reproduced with that window manager. There is an option "Allow Primary Windows On Top" that seems to be on by default. If one turns that off, CDE behaves as all other window managers I tested (6 or 7), that is it does not cover dialogs with the primary window. Erajonj, try turning that option off and see if you get the behaviour you want. Do we want something about this in PROBLEMS? _______________________________________________ Emacs-devel mailing list Emacs-devel@gnu.org http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/emacs-devel
