GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 614272
Chat window focuses itself obnoxiously when joining chats
Last modified: 2010-05-02 20:51:34 UTC
When joining many group chats, such as on connect with auto-join enabled empathy will focus the chat window every time a new chat is joined, making it impossible to do anything else while empathy is joining chats.
Confirming! This is especially annoying if you do things in between and end up to post some random message to a chat channel that just opened.
Ah ok, there is a bug with more discussion about that issue! *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 588955 ***
