I started up the Cygwin XFree86 server yesterday again (after many
weeks). Thanks for all the improvements!
I do have a problem with window content updates, though. I am running
latest Cygwin (as of yesterday) on a Win2000 system with "focus
follows mouse policy" (this can be set in TweakUI). Mostly it works
fine for X programs, too.
When I have two overlapping X windows and move the mouse to the back
one it gets focus and everything is as expected. However when I then
click its titlebar to move it to the front the newly shown content is
not redrawn! Only when the window looses focus and regains it the
content will be displayed correctly.
Looks like bringing the window to the front does not trigger the right
signal, i.e. redefining the window area which has to be redrawn.
Feel free to contact me if you need more information.
Greetings,
Jochen
