Description Jason Montojo CLA 2002-06-03 17:05:27 EDT
Build F2, Win2k

1) Open a Java perspective
2) Window->Reset Perspective
3) Ensure that Tasks and Console views are stacked together
4) Ensure Search view is closed
5) Select the Console view, then select Outline (or any other view that is not 
stacked with Tasks or Console)
6) Do a File Search on "hello"
7) Close the Search view (it should have stacked itself on top of the Console 
view)
8) Do a File Search again on "hello"

The Search view should be stacked on the Console again, and it should be 
active.  However, the Console appears to be on top of the stack of views, 
regardless of which one you activate.  In other words, if you select the Task 
view by clicking on its tab, the Task view won't appear.  The Console stays on 
top.  If you select the Console view explicitly, then choose something else, 
the behaviour returns to normal.

I'm still trying to isolate the bug but this is the shortest set of steps I 
could find that reproduces the bug successfully.

Try this too:

While the view is out of sync, try resizing the workbench window.  It should 
appear as if the renegade view does not resize itself.  Instead, it "floats".

Also happens on Linux/Motif, but not on Linux/GTK

I've seen variants of this on all platforms. There was a theory that this was a UI issue. Moving to UI to verify. If not, please send it back to us. :-)

Probably a dup of bug 18929.
Eduardo, can you confirm?
