As you said it works fine on JDK1.4.0, Am I right? So it is JDK specific and we will not fix issues related to old JDKs, so close as WONTFIX Not exactly: I neglected to point out that the problem was originally reproduced under IBM's JDK 1.3.1 (not Sun's). What I said is that this works for Sun JDK 1.4.x, not IBM JDK where the problem is manifesting itself. It's quite possible that this issue isn't version specific and will manifest itself in IBM JDK 1.4.x when it comes out. If you can repro this with Sun JDK 1.3.x (I don't have access to it here) we'll assume it is version-specific and reclose the issue; otherwise I believe it is still a bug to be dealt with. changed owner Dafe -> Peter Z. reassigne to Marek, new owner of ui subcomponents It is not specific to one JDK version. All dialogs have main window as their owner. (It is to make sure dialog is always in front of main window.) When dialog is invoked from Options window and Options window is in separated frame (independent of main window) it cause hiding Options and putting main window in front of Options window. There was problem with setting of other owner then main window to modal dialogs - their owner can disappear before modal dialog is finished. I am afraid that with current design when Options is opened as separate frame it is possible to solve this issue. I will assign it to ui so they can take it into account when/if they will change current ui design. Marek, is this still an issue? It works for me. Now Options is dialog with main window as owner not independent frame/window as before. So it might fix this. I will check. I tested: NB dev build 200406171800, Linux/RH 9/Gnome and Win XP, JDK 1.4.2_04 and JDK 1.5.0 b56. Still happens. I think problem is that dialog displayer does not return focus to previously activated window but to main window. At least now Options dialog stays above main window as main window is its owner. tested in the latest trunk version and it seems to be working fine (winxp - jdk 1.4 & 1.5) verified in NB.dev(200507131800)/closed |
