Wayland: Unable to lower windows #102985

Under Wayland it's not possible to lower windows.


  • From checking the WAYLAND API's it seems this is not supported. Similar to #98928 it seems likely this is a design decision.
  • Window raising is supported via xdg-activation-v1 (see: 3071ec486b).

@eszlari this can be used to handle the activation part, which typically raises the window too (it misses proper raise/lower support).

Since X11 and Cocoa both raise and activate, it seems reasonable to activate for wayland too.

For reference, this commit (ea1aac88db) gives some hints for activation although there may be a simpler way to implement this when an application needs to raise it's own window.

@eszlari added support for xdg-activation, although lowering windows still isn't supported (updated task).
