Description _ hlu 2002-05-16 01:02:26 UTC 
build 020510(RC2):

It happens on Linux:
To reproduce:
1.Delete a file in the Explorer window.
2.It brings a confirm dialog window.
3.use Alt-Tab to get the focus of the window.
The window can be highlight but the focus is not
set to that window as do Alt-N does not work.

And what if you press Tab, before pressing Alt+N ?
Comment 2 _ hlu 2002-05-16 18:35:18 UTC 
Pressing Tab does not traverse the confirm delete window, but I can
see it traverse other window(mostly Explorer window). It also shows
that the confirm delete window does not get focus.
Comment 3 Marian Mirilovic 2002-05-17 09:12:04 UTC 
Did you use follow-focus ? JDK version ?
Comment 4 _ hlu 2002-05-17 22:26:58 UTC 
I used jdk1.4.0. What is follow-focus? Do you mean Tab traverse? I
tried Tab and other keys but none of them can set the focus to the
confirm window.
Comment 5 _ ttran 2002-06-11 16:23:37 UTC 
There used to be a bug in JDK 1.4 series when the java code is not
notified that the window (frame/dialog) is focused.  It totally breaks
Swing focus system.  I think this can be a case.  The bug has  been
fixed in JDK. Please check the latest version of JDK 1.4.x. (1.4.0_01
or 1.4.1 beta)

I don't think this is a bug in NB

Resolved for 3.4.x or earlier, no new info since then -> verified.
