[Wayland-bugs] [Bug 781845] GTK_WINDOW_POPUP cannot gain keyboard focus when using gtk_window_set_transient_for

[gtk+ (GNOME Bugzilla)]

--- Comment #2 from Olivier Fourdan <ofourdan at redhat.com> ---
I don't think "popup" windows are supposed to be focused by default, not even
on X11 (where they translate as override-redirect, which are not focused). As a
matter of fact, that particular code snippet doesn't work on X11
(GDK_BACKEND=x11 ...) here.

For this particular use, I reckon a popover would be more appropriate though
and would do all that for you transparently, but I understand that might
require some changes in the code.

That being said, with the code as it is, under Wayland that translates as a
subsurface because you didn't setup a grab. But I doubt you'd want a grab or
popup for this intended use, I think.

Best imho is to simply add a "gtk_grab_add (popup);", see attached code.
