Totem doesn't quit Fullscreen-Mode when focus is taken

[Kai Mast]

Binary package hint: totem

When I have running Totem in Fullscreen an another window opens and takes fokus (or I take it manually by using the compiz shift switcher) Totem doesn't quit Fullscreen.

The Result is a rather ugly look where the gnome-panel and the (now) focused window are ontop of the fullscreen video. I think this is a bug and not a preferred behaviour..

I am using 10.10 but i think it always behaved like that.

This bug is an upstream one and it would be quite helpful if somebody experiencing it could send the bug the to the people writing the software. You can learn more about how to do at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Upstream. Thanks in advance!

Thanks for reporting the Bug upstream, although it doesn't seem like there is much interest in fixing it. Can this be nominated as papercat for Natty?

Still happens in 12.10 e.g. when the network menu pops up.

Noticed Firefox has the same issue when viewing fullscreen HTML5 videos. Maybe fullscreen focus handling is just broken in X11? Mir hopefully fixes this...
