<div dir="ltr">I just would like to add that is seems that a new window is given focus only if I'm not inside an application.<br><br>for example: if I'm on desktop 1 ,no application running on that desktop, and try to open an application on desktop 3, it gives focus to the new application.<br>
<br>if I'm on desktop 1 inside firefox ( for example ) and try to open an application on desktop 3 it doesn't give that application focus.<br><br>is that a feature or a bug ? if a feature can I change it ?<br><br>

</div></div>This was brought up in the past on here, or on IRC. The <focus> flag<br>
will cause openbox to move to the application's desktop in our git<br>
version. In 3.4.x it doesn't do this.<br>
