Description

When I invoke the jump-to-file dialog from a global shortcut, the dialog does pop up correctly, but it is usually below other windows, and never focused. This is of course not a problem when Audacious already has the focus, but it would be a great idea to add .focus() after the call to open the dialog, when calling from the Global Shortcuts plugin.

We call gtk_window_present(), which is all that can be done from the application side. After that, it's up to your window manager. You should check to see that it doesn't have something like "focus stealing prevention" enabled.

I used a KWin rule to set "prevent focus stealing" to "none" for this window. That worked perfectly, thanks!
