Description zolta 2010-02-01 05:06:09 UTC
My use case is the following:

I'm editing A.java and B.java both are docked editor windows
Class A imports class B 
I'm undocking A.java
I'm navigating ( go to source ) to B.java

result: B.java is Activated in the main platform  window, but the  main platform window itself remains behind the undocked A.java window

expected result:
B.java is activated as well as it's parent window (mode)

Navigating should touch Operating System's window manager if necessary


( Bug 179897 -  Focus issue in undocked Navigator  
https://netbeans.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=179897 ) 
may be similar but I'm not sure of the relation of the two
