Help needed: how to make window visible

[juha]

Hi !

I give up. Please give me a hint what I am doing wrong
or if this is just mission impossible.

I try to make calendar window visible to the user using the
following code:

...
static void
raise_window()
{
    GdkScreen *screen;

    screen = xfce_gdk_display_locate_monitor_with_pointer(NULL, NULL);
    gtk_window_set_screen(GTK_WINDOW(xfcal->mWindow)
                , screen ? screen : gdk_screen_get_default ());
    if (pos_x || pos_y)
        gtk_window_move(GTK_WINDOW(xfcal->mWindow), pos_x, pos_y);
    gtk_window_stick(GTK_WINDOW(xfcal->mWindow));
    if (select_always_today)
        xfcalendar_select_today(GTK_CALENDAR(xfcal->mCalendar));
    gtk_window_present(GTK_WINDOW(xfcal->mWindow));
    gtk_widget_show_all(xfcal->mWindow);
}
...

But it does _not_ work _if_ I set "Activate focus stealing prevention"
active. Without this it works 100 % and with it, it works 80 % of time.

Is that ok? any workarounds?
