** [bugs:#134] Focus follows mouse keeps switching between new script tabs (0.6.1, opensuse)**

**Status:** open

The focus follows mouse function, alternates at high speed between an old and a newly created script tab.

Rkward 0.6.1 (from download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/languages:/R:/Supplement)
Opensuse 12.3
KDE 4.10.5 R1


Steps
1. set MDI window focus behavior to "focus follows mouse" (settings > General MDI window focus behavior).
2a. Create a new script file tab, using CTRL-N or the menu icon "Create"
2b. When the cursor is in the textwindow , the two tabs alternate at high speed. 
3. When moving out of the text-area, or clicking in it, the switching stops. Opening a new doesn't help.

2b may also explain the issue when using the "create" icon, as this places the cursor effectively within the text area.


Workaround
Deactive and use KDE's focus follow option,
(configure desktop > windows behavior > tab focus > Policy)


Notes
BTW, at times the rwkard mouse focus option isn't practical, e.g. when creating a new graphic output window, it gets pushed back. A delay could help, but wouldn't solve everything. 

FYI
