Using OpenSuse 11.0

I can not find out where to change the mouse focus option.
I have found it in the past but can not find it now.

I have looked under Yast settings but can not find it there either.

Click on the KDE Menu - blue square icon with a K, on the panel,
mine is at the lower left corner of the screen -- and select:

Settings / Desktop / Window Behavior

In the window that comes up, select the Focus tab
(it may already be selected).

Note that the Apply button at the bottom of the window
is grayed out and can't be pushed.

In the list box at Policy select Click to Focus, even if it's
already set to Click to Focus (sometimes KDE3 forgets a setting).

The Apply button should now be active. Click it.

That should do it. Click OK to get rid of the window.

Thanks

I did not find the KDE Menu icon but I was able to pull up the menu by right
clicking on the top of the window and make the change.
