Description bht 2004-04-04 11:19:01 UTC

In some some simple cases, in SDI mode, the editor
loses top position
(disappears into the background) when [Alt+G] is
pressed.
In this testcase, the explorer window comes on top.

Product Version  = NetBeans IDE 3.6 RC2 (Build
200403312136)
Operating System = Windows 98 version 4.10 running
on x86
Java; VM; Vendor = 1.4.2_03; Java HotSpot(TM)
Client VM 1.4.2_03-b02; Sun Microsystems Inc.


How to reproduce:

- Create an empty userDir
- Start NetBeans
- Menu|Tools|Setup Wizard|Separate Windows Mode|Finish
- Maximise the NetBeans IDE Toolbar window
- Maximise the FileSystems Window
- Maximise the Editor Window
- Select File Systems window
- Navigate to node "examples/texteditor"
- Double-click on "class Ted"
- Click on the java source file tab.
- [Ctrl+F] "new Finder" [Enter] finds:
  "new Finder(this, textBox).show();"
- Position cursor on "Finder"
- Press [Alt+G]

Expected behavior:
- Finder.java should be opened in the editor and
should be on top

Actual behavior:
- The explorer window comes on top and obscures
the editor window

I think NetBeans has become annoying. It wasn't annoying before.

I'm raising priority to P2, I understand this is annoying problem for
SDI users. (I'm not saying I know how to fix this :-)

Comment 4 Milos Kleint 2004-07-14 11:21:25 UTC

reassigning, will try to fix it.

Comment 5 Milos Kleint 2004-07-30 07:40:36 UTC

I've been debugging this yesterday and it seems like it's another
invokation of the focus problems, like #44278, #46188.

Comment 6 Milos Kleint 2004-08-03 13:00:55 UTC

fixed in trunk.

Comment 7 Zdenek Konecny 2005-07-08 14:03:31 UTC

I've marked it closed. It's too old and in current version isn't any text editor
in examples.
