Compositor: sync stacking of window actors even if they're not parented to the window groups (2.26 KB, patch)
2013-03-12 16:05 UTC, Giovanni Campagna 		committed Details | Review

Description Giovanni Campagna 2013-03-12 16:05:10 UTC 
Take gnome-shell master. Use alt-tab to switch to an app which was
in the background on a different workspace.
You'll notice that the workspace switch happens with the old stacking,
ie you see the app that was previously in the foreground on the top,
and then you see the right app raised at the end of animation.

This is a fallout from deprecated clutter API porting.

Compositor: sync stacking of window actors even if they're not parented to the window groups

Window actors might be temporarily parented to intermediate actors during
effect, but we should not require that the plugin keeps track of stacking.
Rather, assume that the intermediate groups holds a whole stack, and
applying position within it.

I don't like the approach, but it matches what we had before, and it works.
