Can not bring window in front by clicking in their contents

[admail2]

I can't bring windows in front by clicking in their contents. I have to even click on title bar.

For example, I opened a terminal window, and then a file management window, if I click the command area of terminal window, it could not become to front. I have to click title bar...

It is so strange and I could not find where I can change it...


May be it is a easy problem for you guys.... :) x(x(

It seems that this problem is only affected when I was using VNC.

May be I post a wrong place... :)

thanks,

You use gnome right??? I've already seen that but with compiz on ubuntu.

Use gconf-editor or gconftool-2 to change /apps/metacity/general/raise_on_click to true.

gconftool-2 -s -t book /apps/metacity/general/raise_on_click true

Should do it.
