Bug Description

The following issue only happens when "Keep previews of minimized windows" is turned on under Workarounds in CompizConfig.

After I minimize a window, it doesn't loose focus. I tried it with a text editor: I minimized it, then I typed something and it got typed to the text editor.

The normal behavior would be giving the focus back to the last previously active window.

I'm using Ubuntu Mate 16.04, Compiz version is 0.9.12.2

This may be the true nature of bug 1195518. We should check if people affected by it (or the many, many duplicates) have "Keep previews of minimized windows" enabled. This can probably be fixed in the Workarounds plugin.

This also affects Manjaro Compiz with XFCE.

It is not possible to maximize windows by pressing button in panel directly after minimizing. One needs to change focus before which is unexpected behavior.
