Bug Description

When I close window in monitor/screen I am working in I get focused on window on opposite screen not the same. This is usability problem and should be fixed. When I close window (or else like lose focus of my window when foces lose isn't caused by me) I window manager should focus application (window) on the same screen not the opposite.

Thanks for your report. However, I'm not able to understand exactly your problem. What happens exactly when window loses focus? Do you use multiple desktop and focus pass to another desktop? Or anything? I should be grateful if you can describe with more detail how this bug is reproducible. Thanks.

Sorry, ignore my last comment. I haven't seen that you use dual-head configuration. However, more details are welcome. For example, does it happens always or randomly? Do you perform specific actions before this bug? Thanks.

Please give a look at bug 96843. Do you have a similar issue in Kde or it is different? Please attach the file /etc/X11/xorg.conf. Thanks.

I don't think so. In my case when application terminates, another application on opposite screen gains focus (NOT ON THE SAME SCREEN as it should be).
