 On most systems I know this one ...

=C2=A0 (let ((depress-frame (selected-frame))
=C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 (release-frame (make-frame)))
=C2=A0 =C2=A0 (select-frame-set-input-focus depress-frame)
=C2=A0 =C2=A0 ;; On MacOS, depress-frame is never raised to the top
=C2=A0 =C2=A0 ;; of the frame stack and never is given input focus
=C2=A0 =C2=A0 ;; after release-frame is created.
=C2=A0 =C2=A0 (sit-for 4)
=C2=A0 =C2=A0 (select-frame-set-input-focus release-frame)))

 ... happens because a new frame is always raised and gets input focus
unless certain precautions are taken.

=E2=80=8B= Yes, that seems to be the case on MacOS as well.=C2=A0 But why
even if I a= dd a (sit-for 4) before (select-frame-set-input-focus depress-frame)
<= div class=3D"gmail_default" style=3D"font-family:monospace,monospace">is th= at frame not raised and given focus?=E2=80=8B
=E2=80=8B=E2=80=8B
The following works here on
Windows:

(defun test ()
=C2=A0 (let ((depress-frame (selected-frame))
 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 =C2=A0 (release-frame (make-frame '((no-focus-on-m= ap . t)))))
=C2=A0 =C2=A0 (select-frame-set-input-focus depress-frame)
=C2=A0 =C2=A0 ;; On MacOS, depress-frame is never raised to the top
=C2=A0 =C2=A0 ;; of the frame stack and never is given input focus
=C2=A0 =C2=A0 ;; after release-frame is created.
=C2=A0 =C2=A0 (sit-for 4)
=C2=A0 =C2=A0 (select-frame-set-input-focus release-frame)))

=E2=80=8BYes, that works find on MacOS as well, so that= will have to be the solution.
Thanks much.=E2=80=8B
