Description Lakshmi P Shanmugam CLA 2010-12-07 06:49:11 EST 
Build: Build id: I20101206-1800

Steps to reproduce:
1) Run the ControlExample
2) In the DateTime tab set the style to SWT.DATE and SWT.DROP_DOWN
3) Open the dropdown calendar
4) Switch to another application like firefox, textedit
The dropdown calendar is still visible on top of the other application.
Expected : the calendar should be hidden when we switch to another application.

A related issue: The DateTime widget should get focus when we click on the dropdown button. Because this doesn't happen, the focus is on a different control and we can traverse between different controls while the dropdown calendar is still visible.

Yep, you are correct. Actually, any mouse activity outside the control should hide the drop-down, much like a ComboBox.

I'll look at it post-M4.
