Category: puredata Group: None
Status: Open
Resolution: Fixed Priority: 7
Private: No Submitted By: Hans-Christoph Steiner (eighthave) Assigned to: Miller Puckette (millerpuckette) Summary: Properties panels don't open unless you click on Pd Window
Initial Comment: • launch pd • open any existing patch using File->open • right-click on canvas or array and select Properties • nothing happens except this: ‣ .pdwindow done-popup 0 206 47; ‣ error: .pdwindow: no such object • click on Pd window, then on patch • now click properties panel and it works
This bug exists in the HEAD of pure-data.git but not in pd-gui-rewrite/0.43. I suspect it is due to the changes in the startup procedure and things are not getting initialized properly. I'll try to take a look later today.

Message: Ok, I fixed this. (I was wrong about the startup procedure) It turns out that not all window managers send a FocusIn event when a new window is created, so ::focused_window was not being set. I made the Map event also set focused_window, which I guess all window managers will send either Map, FocusIn, or both upon window creation, so we're covered.
