Gnome 3 mouse focus



One annoyance I have with Gnome 3, and not easily available to fix, is the need to click a window to change the focus.

I prefer to have the focus of my windows to follow the mouse.

I used the tool dconf-editor

I found the config lives the path in org.gnome.desktop.wm.preferences

Tick 'auto raise'
Right click on 'focus-mode' and select 'mouse' .
