Notepad++ loses focus while typing

Post by tomaskir »

Hello,

I have issues with Notepad++ losing focus on pretty much each key-stroke.
This is very fast, it loses and regains focus instantly on each key input.

I can see the active window jumping away from NP++ in my panel.

The issue is that:
1) NP++ window "blinks" on typing, as I have non-focused windows set to 75% opacity
2) NP++ misses some keystrokes when typing fast.
Since when typing fast, some key-strokes happen when focus is temporarily lost, and therefore are not sent to the NP++ window.

Any hints on how to fix this much appreciated.

Using:
Wine: Wine-5.0-rc4 (Staging)
Kernel: 4.19.96
Distro: Manjaro (Arch)
DE/WM: XFCE / XFWM

I would really love to fix this, but don't even know where to start.

I can confirm the issue, but only when using XFCE. I'd open a bugreport for that issue at http://bugs.winehq.org/
