[Overview] Allow selecting windows in lightbox mode (4.27 KB, patch)
2010-01-18 12:43 UTC, Florian Müllner 		committed Details | Review

Description Raphael Freudiger 2009-11-23 20:24:28 UTC 
Steps to reproduce:
1) open some windows of one application, i.e. four windows of nautilus
2) go to overview mode
3) right click on application (i.e. nautilus) icon, so only the windows of this application are shown
4) click on one of these windows to select it

What happens: It goes back to normal overview mode. All windows are shown.

Expected: It should go to selected window and leave overview mode and only go back to overview mode if no window was selected

[Overview] Allow selecting windows in lightbox mode

Make the event blocking done by Lightbox optional - leave it activated
when displaying the run dialog, but deactivate it when highlighting
windows in the overview.
