Description John Jullion-ceccarelli 2002-07-09 17:54:40 UTC

win2k jdk1.4 7-9 dev build

1. Open Update Center dialog.
2. Click Proxy Configuration.
3. Bring another window on your system up (in my case I 
brought up the Internet Explorer window to check get my 
proxy settings from there)
4. Go back to the IDE window.

The Update Center and Proxy Configuration dialog boxes are 
lost behind the IDE window. No way to get back to them, 
have to close the IDE. Marking as P1 since there's data 
loss if you had unsaved changes in the Source Editor.

on playing with it some more, the dialogs do get fronted 
if you just minimize the window that's in front of the IDE 
windows. If you click the IDE entry on the task bar, they 
are behind the IDE window.

this is a bug in core, not autoupdate, true for all non-modal dialogs
I believe.  It's probably caused by using null instead of the main
window as parent for dialogs, a change made recently.

Going back to using main window as parent for dialogs.  Reopened issue
