If macro view is already open, but not activated, and I do ctrl-alt-click, the view is not activated, so I need to find it tons of output tabs - very inconvenient.
If it isn't open, then it opens and activates, the issue occurs only when it is already open
Created attachment 149879 [details] suggested patch
fixed in 279170:c70fa7536782 Also now Ctrl+Alt+Click doesn't give a focus to Macro View TC, so one can continue working with Editor (caret synchronization is enabled in Macro View by default)
Integrated into 'main-silver', will be available in build *201410180001* on http://bits.netbeans.org/dev/nightly/ (upload may still be in progress) Changeset: http://hg.netbeans.org/main-silver/rev/c70fa7536782 User: Ilia Gromov <ilia@netbeans.org> Log: fixed Bug #247902 - When navigating to macro view via ctrl-alt-click, it is not activated
In patch2 I see such regression: - Create Quote - Open quote.cc - Do Ctrl-Alt-Mouse_Click on EXIT_SUCCESS - Open "C/C++ Documentation" tab - Select any identifier in editor ==> IDE activates "Macro Expansion" tab very annoying behavior
Backed out the fix, will take a look after 801patch2. 280662:a1f6c20c2ad1

Seems to be fixed while fixing some other bug, I can't reproduce the behavior described in comment 1, 2. Closing as WORKSFORME.
