Description michal.owsiak 2010-12-16 20:10:47 UTC 
Use-case:

1. remove netbeans setting directory

rm -rf ~/.netbeans/7.0beta

2. make sure there are another settings left within .netbeans directory (you must make sure that NetBeans will ask whether to import settings or not)

3. start NetBeans

4. Window appears asking whether to import settings or not

5. Press Command-Tab and switch to another application that is on different space

6. Press Command-Tab and cycle back to NetBeans

7. Result: Dialog window is not shown and NetBeans looks staled

Workaround: user must cycle through all the spaces until Dialog window is found

Suggested solution: Dialog window should be brought to front (as well as correct space) when NetBeans application is chosen through Command-TAB
