Description Pavel Buzek 2003-10-10 17:14:41 UTC
I have focus in editor and I am typing. When I
switch to e.g. netscape and back using keyboard
shortcuts (Alt+tab on winxp) the main menu gets
focus and I have to click into editor to be able
to type again. This is pretty annoying since I
loose the line where I was. Using mouse to switch
between windows (click on title of nb) works ok.

Currently on my machine it works fine.

Which build do you use, jdk version.. and can you experience on last
build too?
Comment 2 Peter Zavadsky 2003-10-24 13:04:04 UTC
No answer, closing as worksforme... if experience on last build, reopen.

Well, it seems it is windows-specific problem. On linux it works fine.
Comment 5 Peter Zavadsky 2003-10-31 13:32:19 UTC
Dafe, please could you have a look at it, you are on Windows.
Comment 6 David Simonek 2004-02-18 11:32:09 UTC
It works perfectly on 3.6 beta with windows XP, jdk 1.4.2. I believe
this was already fixed. Closing as worksforme.

verified in [nb 3.6 rc1](200403141830)
