Windowing issue on Ubuntu

Question

I used Microsoft Edge on Ubuntu 22.04, and when open edge seems to be the focus of the cursor and thus it takes several clicks to focus on a background window after I click on them while edge is open. Between other apps this doesn't occur. This happens in both x11 and Wayland.

Answer 1

You can install Microsoft Edge browser as a flatpak app by running the following commands and then check if this windowing issue also occurs when running Microsoft Edge web browser as a flatpak app:

sudo apt update
sudo apt install flatpak  
flatpak remote-add --if-not-exists flathub https://flathub.org/repo/flathub.flatpakrepo
flatpak install flathub com.microsoft.Edge

To run Microsoft Edge:

flatpak run com.microsoft.Edge
