      Anyone having this problem?

      I have been using Opera on my Linux box under XFCE for many years.

      Unfortunately, after having it updated to Version: 80.0.4170.40 it does not seem to respect my window manager's settings for preventing the stealing of focus.

      What can I do to stop this annoying feature (or bug)??

        Same issue here using IceWM. Opera Version:80.0.4170.72 Linux is stubbornly stealing focus from non maximized windows just above it (happened with emacs, xterm and urxvt).

          Same issue as https://forums.opera.com/topic/51465/opera-moves-on-top-of-all-other-windows/8 I think

          It does not seem to be a priority to get it fixed
