           Summary: KOrganizer main window steals focus at start (doesn't
                    respect ICCCM 4.1.2.5?)
           Product: korganizer
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Gentoo Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: korganizer-devel kde org
        ReportedBy: h.judt gmx at


Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.5.7)
Installed from:    Gentoo Packages
Compiler:          gcc-4.1.2 
OS:                Linux

Whenever KOrganizer is started and the main window appears, it steals the focus. As I'm using fluxbox, this messes up functionality like remembering the workspace for the app to appear on. Very annoying. No other KDE application I've run shows this behaviour, so this is definitely a KOrganizer problem. KOrganizer's main window certainly should not be that intrusive.

Please see fluxbox bug 1753256
http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1753256&group_id=35398&atid=413960
for a full description and a fluxbox developer's response.

On kde bug tracker, there is also a similar issue concerning reminders which has been solved:
Bug 56545: Reminders should be on top, but not steal the focus
