Hi,

I came across an issue with stacking. So far I only had it with two gtk-based programs, i.e., all chromium-based browsers as well as pulseaudio-equalizer-gtk, as follows.

starting scenario:

Settings > Focus Settings > Stacking: "Raise windows on mouse hover" is enabled
and chromium or pulse-equal-gtk is on top
and another program (not chromium and not pusle-equal-gtk) is underneath
and the mouse moves away from the program that's on top

reproduction of unexpected behaviour:

mouse moves back to the program that's on top
AND
mouse moves over the area that's underneath
THEN
the program underneath comes to the top.

To illustrate, I attach a hand-drawn sketch with explanation. Playing with Enlightenment's Windows settings did not have an effect on the issue.

I am on efl-current and enlightenment-current from github, running on Slackware-15.

Thanks raster.

I'm now on git.enlightenment.org. Seems resolved, but let's keep the issue open for a few days so I can work out if I'm still getting it.

:) always best course is to get "up to date" and then see. :) thus mhy comments were for now just to get you "to latest git" to see that fixes are already there... and if not - let's look. :)

No worries, all good.

Looks like we can close this one, the issue is gone.
