Description Matthew Conway CLA 2004-02-27 11:59:46 EST
If I click on the title tab of an editor, the editor selection dropdown that
appears never disappears, even if I minimize eclipse, its still there in the
foreground covering my other apps.  I'm using Fedora core 1, and eclipse
I20040226 GTK

chris, do you still see this with the latest on the Mac?
Comment 2 Douglas Pollock CLA 2004-07-15 16:00:06 EDT
I believe this has been largely fixed in 3.0, though it there are still some 
very hard to reproduce cases in which this might occur.  The problem seems to 
have been related to the use of XSetInputFocus within the SWT implementation. 
 
If you see this problem again, please either re-open this bug, or append 
comments to Bug 58642.
