Hi Anigel,

I'm having the same issue. It doesn't happen every time I switch desktops
but it happens a lot.

So I added this to line my "keys" file: "Mod1 y :ExecCommand transset-df -c
1".
The program run with those parameters will give you a cross hair and will
unset the transparency of the window you click on.

OK, this isn't really a solution but it works for now.

This is probably a bug. but I'm not sure it originates from xcompmgr or
fluxbox so I didn't log any yet.

Hope this helps,
Pieter
