Status: Accepted Owner: aplantec Labels: Milestone-1.2 New issue 3488 by aplantec: Find and replace dialog behavior http://code.google.com/p/pharo/issues/detail?id=3488 I wonder if this is a feature or a bug. When I open a system windows AND a find & replace popup, even if the system window is in front, when I click in the code pane of a method, the find replace popup comes to front :( I mean, it gets the focus. Thanks Mariano It was supposed to be a feature, I mean for the find & replace window to always stay on top. A setting can be easily introduced to allow/forbid this. But, it should not take the keyboard focus: if you click on a code pane, for example, the find & replace window comes to top but the clicked code pane should keep the keyboard focus. It is the case here. Did you noticed something different ? Cheers Alain Igor answer: i think that the problem here (as i understood), that search window capturing a global focus, while in reality it should prevent interaction only with window, where you activated search/replace function, so you should not be able to interact with that window, while still should be able to interact with another ones.
