Description Lars CLA 2009-08-25 08:11:53 EDT
example application:

import org.eclipse.swt.SWT;
import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Display;
import org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Shell;

public class Foo {
	public static void main(String[] args) {
		Display display = new Display();
		Shell shell = new Shell(display);
		shell.setText("Application");
		shell.setSize(200, 200);
		shell.open();
		Shell dialog = new Shell(shell, SWT.TOOL | SWT.APPLICATION_MODAL);
		dialog.setSize(50, 50);
		dialog.open();
		while (!shell.isDisposed()) {
			if (!display.readAndDispatch())
				display.sleep();
		}
		display.dispose();
	}
}

Steps To Reproduce:
1. Launch the example app.
2. Use Alt+Tab several times.
3. The application's symbol disappears.

Without the SWT.TOOL hint everything works fine, but i need the small shell's drop shadow.

I couldn't reproduce this with the latest in HEAD. What version of Eclipse are you running?
Comment 2 Bogdan Gheorghe CLA 2009-08-25 11:46:13 EDT
My mistake - totally reproducible.

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet. As such, we're closing this bug.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it and reopen this bug. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
