Re: [g-a-devel]Accessibility for Tasklist applet

[muktha <muktha narayan wipro com>]

Hi Calum,

The behavior of tasklist as per my observation :

1. When a window is in maximised state and does not have focus,
     the first mouse click on the task's button gives focus to the
     window and the second click minimizes the window.
2. When a window is in minimised state, first mouse click on the task's
    button will maximize the window and give focus to it.

In case of keyboard (if the window is maximized) when I press
space/enter, the window gets the focus. Now since the focus is on
the window, if I hit enter/space again, this keyboard input is actually
sent to the window(for eg. I tried with terminal window).

Thanks 'n Regards
Muktha
