[nb_dev](20011122), [jdk1.4](87) Steps to reproduce: - open/create JFrame - add JButton (select from Component Palette, click to Frame) - select jButton1 in Component Inspector - hit F2 (rename) -> focus is themself delegated to Property Sheet, and now it's impossible rename component by in-place editing Maybe issue in Explore , feel free to reassigne.
Target milestone -> 3.3.1.
Explorer issue, reassigne to Explorer.
After some investigation I am closing as WONTFIX. Reasons: it happens under very rare conditions. You have to hit F2 right after clicking a node in the interval between the tree can get into "renaming" state. Looks like the JTree is not in consistent state with regard to focus in this period of time (I am not sure about this). On some platforms (Solaris) the focus is transferred to next focusable component while on other platforms the focus can appear as "lost". It would require further investigation whether this behaviour can be reproduced in self contained example to be able to report it to the Swing team. If you find this serious enough please go ahead and file the issue for Swing's JTree with something like "Focus problems while getting into rename state on JTree".
Resolved for 3.4.x or earlier, no new info since then -> verified
