Subject: New Windows open behind current ones rather than in front
Date: Fri, 14 Oct 2022 11:58:21 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <c9e9f12a-05ca-48d3-e221-559f0a9e6885@cs.umass.edu> (raw)
Dear Cygwiners -
I am having an issue under Windows 11 where new windows, when spawned from the command line of (say)
Cygwin bash or WSL2 bash come up *behind* current Windows. This behavior seems new to Windows 11.
Anybody know a setting or technique to control / change this? Two examples:
- Spawn Word from Cygwin bash
- Spawn okular from WSL 2
If I spawn xterm from Cygwin bash, it comes up in front, but from WSL2 bash, it comes up behind. My
X server is the Cygwin one. Happy to provide more details if this is not enough.
Best - Eliot Moss
