eNdEmiOn Posted July 19, 2008 Report Share Posted July 19, 2008 I'm using uT 1.8 build 11468.Besides from a few crashes (report sent) I noticed that the program window will show every time on adding a torrent. Activate the program window option is turned off. Also Always activate when clicked is on.As far as I can tell right now it only happens when uT is active in a window. So if it sits in the tray everything is fine. Sometimes it only flashes, sometimes it stays open in front of you. Seems to have to do with the order that your windows are opened. If the uT window is next to FF window(s) than it will stay open. If there is a window in between it will only flash.(Group similar taskbar buttons is turned off)I'm adding torrents from FF 3.0.1 usually mininova. Think I've now mentioned all relevant info. If not let me know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted July 19, 2008 Report Share Posted July 19, 2008 Hm. Indeed, it seems it doesn't respect the option... :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firon Posted July 19, 2008 Report Share Posted July 19, 2008 Does it take focus or not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted July 20, 2008 Report Share Posted July 20, 2008 If the µTorrent window is not minimized, then yeah, the main window pops up in front of other windows (behind the add torrent dialog). Not sure if that's a Windows thing, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eNdEmiOn Posted July 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2008 "Not sure if that's a Windows thing, though."uT 1.7.7 does not behave like this so I don't think it's a windows thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultima Posted July 22, 2008 Report Share Posted July 22, 2008 Yeah, that's because µTorrent actually forces the Add New Torrent dialog to pop up on front now. What (I feel) is ambiguous is whether it's a Windows thing that the main window should pop up to the front along with the child dialog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamieo Posted July 22, 2008 Report Share Posted July 22, 2008 I noticed this as soon as I started using RC4 - tried toggling the activate option, restarting etc. but no change. Looking through the history there is:--- 2008-07-15: Version 1.8 RC2 (build 11439)- Fix: Bring the window to the front correctly when "Activate the program window" under "When adding torrents" is selected on Windows 98/2000+I'm on Vista SP1 32bit and went directly from RC1 to RC4 as I'm sure many others did (RC2-4 were all released in a short time period) so it's likely this problem started with RC2 although I cannot confirm that. Apart from this small bug everything else works great! @Ultima - I always have the Add New Torrent dialogue disabled as well and it makes no difference - uTorrent still forces it's way to the top of the Z-Order. Before RC2 uTorrent does not react at all upon opening a torrent (except to quietly add it to the listview) - that is not the case now.As mentioned above closing uTorrent to the system tray prevents uTorrent being shown when adding a torrent - however, you can still observe that whatever window you are working in (firefox for example) loses focus when opening a torrent file (no doubt to the hidden uTorrent window) and that window will no longer receive any keyboard commands until focus is regained (by mouse clicking, alt+tab etc.).

Ultima Posted July 22, 2008 Report Share Posted July 22, 2008 Fair enough. I can confirm that µTorrent is indeed popping to the front even though the add torrent dialog is completely disabled (default download directory and all), and "Activate the program window" is disabled. Definitely warrants looking into. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
