Description yudiset 2008-07-16 10:05:45 UTC
[ BUILD # : 200807160141 ]
[ JDK VERSION : 1.6.0_01 ]

This problem has been mentioned on the Netbeans for PHP blog comment
(http://blogs.sun.com/netbeansphp/entry/netbeans_6_5_milestone_1#comme
nts)

When I press alt-tabs switch from Netbeans to browser (or other
already-opened application) and back again to Netbeans, the alt still
seem pressed because it focus on menu (usually it's the File menu).
And I need to press alt again to get focus to code editor.

But it does not always happen like that.
After ran some more test, I found that it only happened when I press
the Alt-button very fast (maybe about 1 second) to swith to another
application.
So, when we returned to Netbeans, the focus is still on the menu.
And we need to press Alt button again to shift the focus to the code
editor.

I tested it and also experienced the same with 6.5M1 (200807040101).

Sorry, some correction:
I wrote "... I found that it only happened when I press
the Alt-button very fast (maybe about 1 second) to swith to another
application." 
Whereas it's supposed to be " ... I found that it only happened when I press
the Alt-tab button very fast ..... "

Thanks.

I think this shoud be moved from php/code to something more general as ide/ui.

Take a look at my old report:
http://www.netbeans.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=46826

Strange, that it comes back with a recent JDK.

Seems to be a JDK bug: http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6458497

I installed IDE (build 200807221016) with jdk 1.6.0_10 on Windows Vista. Can't reproduce it. Alt-Tab works fine.

This is not a PHP issue. Like ris and cezariusz mentioned, it is a jdk issue.
