Firefox remains in the background when opening urls out of other applications
Hello
I use Firefox 132.0.1 under Fedora 14 Linux. Whenever I click an urls in another application (e.g. Libreoffice, Keepass...) a new tab is opened in Firefox (according to Firefox's settings), but Firefox itself does not pop up in the foreground, it remains in the background. I highly appreciate the setting 'open links in tabs instead of new windows'. But FF only comes to foreground in case I deactivate 'open links in tabs instead of new windows'. How can I prevent FF to stay in the background in case 'open links in tabs instead of new windows' is enabled?
Thank you in advance

What desktop? X11 or Wayland? I click on the link for libre website, it brings the window to the foreground with a new tabs. see screenshots Try downloading Firefox from Mozilla. Download, unzip, and run firefox-bin from the folder and see if you have the same issue. Don't forget to set is as default to test. https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/#product-desktop-release

Dear jonzn4SUSE,
thank you for the hints! I use a wayland desktop. And I alreadyknow that KeepassXC needs adjustements in case of wayland. Meanwhile I recognized that clicking a link in Evolution brings the window to the foreground with a new tabs. The same is true for Evince Document Viewer. But e.g. LibreOffice, KeepassXC, Clementine fail to bring the FF windows to the foreground. Seems that I need to search for some wayland related hints combined with FF. I do not have this issue with another browser, e.g . Chromium. With Chromium all my Linux apps bring the FF window to the foreground.
Strange...
