I’ve searched the forum and found one threadhttp://www-10.lotus.com/ldd/nd6forum.nsf/55c38d716d632d9b8525689b005ba1c0/dc771edad5dac53085256c56004c8dd4?OpenDocument
Has anyone experienced the following.
ND6 client with user preferences set for visual mail notification. If you are in another program and you get a new mail pop-up in ND6 if you click OK focus stays in the Notes Client. In versions prior to ND6 focus would shift back to the other program.
Is there any way to change this behavior? Does everyone experience this (or does anyone not experience this)?
Sorry if this has been discussed but I couldn’t find a solution.
Thanks!

I’ve experienced it too. I’m running 6.0.1 CF1. I have taken the time to post it but I’d like to see how many others have seen this and if it’s a bug to be fixed.

It’s a registry setting in Windows. You can access them through a setting in TweakUI or regedit, but I prefer to do the following. Just use Notepad to create the .reg files.
Save this to a file called PreventApplicationStealingFocus.reg
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop]
“ForegroundLockTimeout”=dword:00030d40
“ForegroundFlashCount”=dword:00000003
Save this to a file called AllowApplicationStealingFocus.reg
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop]
“ForegroundLockTimeout”=dword:00000000
Now, run one file or the other to allow applications to steal focus or to prevent it. Please note that it may take a few minutes after you run them for the setting to take effect.

Has anyone got this suggested fix to work ?
I have created the registry entries but focus still switches back to Lotus Notes when a new mail arrives.
I have added the following parameters to the HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop
“ForegroundLockTimeout”=dword:00030d40
“ForegroundFlashCount”=dword:00000003
The only way that I can prevent Notes from maintaining focus is by minimizing Notes each time that I wish to leave it.
I am running Notes 6.0.3 on Windows NT platform.
Thanks in advance…
