Description jameshfisher 2010-03-14 02:20:49 UTC 
When opening subsequent images in EOG, the new EOG window does not gain focus.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Open nautilus on a directory of images.
2. Open one image in EOG. [EOG should gain focus and be 'on the top' of all other windows.]
3. Without closing the EOG window, go back to the nautilus window, and open a second image in EOG. [A second EOG window will open, 'on top of' all other windows, BUT without focus, which is held by the nautilus window.]

This is infuriatingly inconsistent, as I use alt-f2 to close windows -- when I intend to close the EOG image, I end up closing the directory.
