<pre>This behavior of stealing focus remains an issue for some users who, like me,
tend to work on multiple documents at a time. I too load a LO file and turn to
do other stuff whilst it loads. It does annoy me that LO captures focus
automatically.
A similar bug was filed in 2013 and comments up till 2019 said it got worse
(<a class="bz_bug_link

title="RESOLVED WORKSFORME - LibreOffice steals focus from other applications after startup"
href="show_bug.cgi?id=59803">https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=59803</a>). Then this thread
was opened but it was closed due to insufficient data.
A screenshot is useless in this kind of bug. What can be uploaded is a video
showing LO taking focus whilst working on another program. However it can be
reproduced very easily:
1. Open Notepad
2. Double click Writer document
3. Turn to Notepad (Alt + Tab) and start typing
Behavior: You will end up typing on Writer
Expected behavior: Libreoffice should not steal focus but flash the taskbar
button when loading is complete. A kind of "work in the background"
possibility.
My system is: Win 10 x64 running LO, however the bug has been reported as early
as LO v. 4.0.4.2
Version: 6.4.7.2 (x64)
Build ID: 639b8ac485750d5696d7590a72ef1b496725cfb5
