[Bug 804799] Re: creating new tab = switched window focus

 

Another workaround, according to the chromium dev tracker:
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=88124

It seems the problem is in the GTK+ theme, I switched to "classic theme"
and everything works as expected.

Haven't tested other themes yet (blue is OK for now).

:)

Title:
  creating new tab = switched window focus

Status in Chromium Browser:
  Unknown
Status in “chromium-browser” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  This is similar to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/chromium-
  browser/+bug/728267 but I do not have issues with middle clicking. In
  fact middle clicking should be the same (I assume) as right clicking a
  link then selecting "Open link in new tab", doing this works as
  expected for me.

  The best way for me to describe this issue is by simply showing you:
  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mitfmSI393E

  When I click the + sign on the tab bar to open a new tab while viewing
  a page other than the new tab page the window loses focus giving focus
  to another window open on my system.
