the "exception repoter" window is slid in (up) by hovering over the button without clicking. the editor tab 'pom.xml' still has focus.
! the "output" window is slid in (up) by hovering over the button without clicking. the 'output' window has taken the focus away from the editor tab 'pom.xml', which is wrong. |

Works fine for me. Would you please provide some additional information, may be more detailed steps. May be special kind of output window should be used, filled by certain output from application or empty. Any kind or details. "Would you please provide some additional information" all other minimized windows remain unfocused when they slide in (up). this is so that when you move the mouse away they will automatically slide back out (down), which is quite useful if you quickly want to look it something. the output window used to work this way, but recently (within the last few months) it doesn't. it grabs focus when it slides in (up), which prevents it from sliding back out (down). "May be special kind of output window should be used, filled by certain output from application or empty." i'm not sure what you mean. this is about the focus; the content of the window makes no difference to me.

Product Version: NetBeans IDE Dev (Build 200903250219) Java: 1.6.0_13; Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM 11.3-b02 System: Windows XP version 5.1 running on x86; Cp1251; ru_RU (nb) Reproduced. should the component still be 'IDE'? i know this doesn't sound like a major problem if you don't use slide-in windows, but if you do it's VERY annoying because it breaks your concentration. first, it covers up your code, then you're wondering why the window isn't going away on its own like all the other windows, then you have take your eyes off (what's left of) your code to move your mouse to the button and click. please, it shouldn't be a major endeavour. can this get taken care of before the release? it's probably too late for 6.8 fix now cc'ing tomas who might a bit more about this issue it's output window problem, all other sliding windows behave correctly Caused by the fix of issue #159356. The strange fix of issue #159356 was reverted by changeset: 186908:f4db7d9ea9a7 http://hg.netbeans.org/main/rev/f4db7d9ea9a7 It solves this issue. Integrated into 'main-golden', will be available in build *201101220001* on http://bits.netbeans.org/dev/nightly/ (upload may still be in progress) Changeset: http://hg.netbeans.org/main/rev/f4db7d9ea9a7 User: mentlicher@netbeans.org Log: #160767 It's wrong to activate window that was just made visible only. Revert of changeset 9e60d3d80021 made as a fix of issue #159356. yup. |
