wine users - Apr 2009 - Win Program loses focus and cannot regain it back.

Application is working on Windows but when I run on RedHat10 under Wine 1.1.15.
It looses focus and underlying Linux applications to get the keystrokes from the
keyboard.

Clicking on the application we're trying to run or switching with ALT+TAB
doesn't not give it the focus back.

The parameters we're running Wine are:

Allow the window manager to decorate the windows : OFF
Allow the window manager to control the windows: OFF
Emulate the Virtual desktop : OFF

If we allow the window manager to control the windows, then we don't have
the problem. But, then we're having problems with modal forms used in our
application.

I really appreciate if you guys can advise.

Thanks

Try enabling the virtual desktop.

Turn this back on. That's your problem. WM knowns nothing about Wine windows
and takes all focus.
