    I have setup a Debian 9 VM in Google Cloud Compute Engine.

    Installed Mate Desktop and NoMachine (nomachine_6.0.66_2_amd64.deb).

    Accessing from my local Debian box, configured similarly.

    Everything is working fine, except Alt-tab (In full-screen, keyboard-grabbed, on the remote) is not working to switch away from some apps.

    Namely – Chrome and Chromium – They seems to hog the foreground as though ‘Always on top’ is set (which it isn’t)

    Everything else seems to work fine.

    This is a fundamental problem with any app/desktop that would surely be quickly addressed.

    So, I am wondering if this could be some bizarre compatibility issue with NoMachine on the remote.

    Could it be?

    Chrome certainly does some wacky rendering things that could throw a spanner in the works…

    We’re not able to reproduce this behaviour at all. What’s the version of Chrome and Chromium you can reproduce this problem on?
