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
