It can also happen if you have two overlapping edit screens. IMHO, the best way to deal with it is to convince your WM to raise windows, and tell Epoch not to, via (setq auto-raise-screen nil). I also add a (raise-screen) to my screen hopping keys so that if I use the keywboard instead of the mouse, things work better. -- Alan M.
