Description ssffleming 2002-11-13 17:48:34 UTC 
Testing using Dublin build 021111_1 of EE on NT, JDK 1.4

Steps to reproduce:
open several text files in the source editor
edit some text switching back and forth
cursor position is lost when select tab for source file using mouse button #1

Note: this does not happen in Explorer...cursor position in Filesystems or other tree
is preserved when select different tabs
Comment 1 Martin Roskanin 2002-12-10 14:44:52 UTC 
reproduced.
Focus appears in the first button of the editor toolbar. 
I am not able to find out who change the focus from editor pane to the
button.
Adding keyword FOCUS

Comment 6 Martin Roskanin 2003-02-10 13:19:23 UTC 
I am not sure whether the bug is in JDK or core/windowing system.
Reassigning to core for more investigation.
Comment 7 mslama 2003-02-10 16:48:18 UTC 
I think it is necessary to overwrite requestDefaultFocus() in
TopComponent: org.netbeans.modules.java.JavaEditor$JavaEditorComponent
 or in some superclass if it is enough to request default focus on
editor pane could be possible to overwrite it in some editor subclass
of TopComponent like CloneableEditor. I attach diff for
org.openide.text.CloneableEditor.

You can test patch, just put to lib/patches. It works fine for me.
Comment 11 Martin Roskanin 2003-02-10 17:09:23 UTC 
Works for me too. Thanks Marek.
Tested on:
  Operating System      = Windows 2000 version 5.0 running on x86
  Java; VM; Vendor      = 1.4.1; Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM 1.4.1-b21;
Sun Microsystems Inc.
Comment 12 David Konecny 2003-02-11 09:07:06 UTC 
I reviewed the patch and it seem to me OK.
Comment 13 mslama 2003-02-11 13:11:59 UTC 
Fixed in CloneableEditor. Method requestDefaultFocus() is added to
assign focus to editor pane when requestDefaultFocus() is called for
TopComponent.
