Description tkellerer 2003-02-27 09:41:28 UTC

When the property window is undocked (via
Winow->Undock View) it does not display the
properties any more.

Steps to reproduce: 
Click on an item in the explorer (e.g. a
filesystem root) while the properties view is
still in the explorer. The properties will be
displayed. 

Now click into the properties sheet (to make it
active) and choose Window->Undock view. The
properties sheet will be displayed in a separate
window but won't display anything.

3.5 Dev build from 2003-02-26, JDK 1.4.1, Windows
2000 SP2

It's  reproducible. In my opinion changed selected node cause this
problem. Properties are again displayed when you select the same node
in explorer.

Reproducable on today's trunk?  And if you change selected nodes,
does it then work properly, or it never works again?

As of this week, the property sheet should detach itself from
the selected node (but remember it) if removeNotify() is called -
this avoids a listener leak where the node will hold a reference
to a closed property sheet forever.  It will reattach itself when
it is added into a new window.

It works now in the 3.5 build from 2003-03-13

Okay, closing issue.
