Description Matthew Hatem CLA 2004-05-06 15:30:57 EDT 
Create a perspective with a few views.  

One of the views is not in a tab folder and has a Tree control in it.

Have three other views in a tab folder.

Activate tab/view one.  This view has an action to activate tab/view 3.

Bug -> During that activation, the view containing the Tree control is somehow 
set as activated and the activationList that the WorkbenchPage maintains is 
updated.  Now close tab/view 3 and note that the view containing the Tree 
control is activated instead of tab/view 1.

The problem stems from Composite.fixFocus.  This tries to find the first 
control that will take focus.  This probably not necessary in the middle of a 
view activation.
