Description _ tboudreau 2000-02-10 23:17:56 UTC
Dead mode appears with Find dialog and cannot be closed.  Project not saved properly afterward.  Sometimes hang on loading control panel after restart.  To reproduce (do on a clean reinstall) - test
ed this sequence five times:


  a. Create a class called foo.  Enter a comment in it like //JButton JButton JButton JButton JButton
  b. Press CTRL-F and enter JButton in the search field and press enter.
  c. Use Window | Clone View to create a clone of foo
  d. Close the original editor window.
  e. Set focus to the new clone.
  f. Press CTRL-F.

  Gray main editor window comes up, and cannot be closed.
  On next restart, workspaces be mangled, or IDE will hang on "Loading Control Panel"

[jglick] Similar problems opening examples.texteditor.Ted example form. I open it, do some search & replace, maybe close & reopen it--often the window greys out while Find dialog is open, or flashes g
rey when the dialog is opened. After closing the Find dialog the window is OK. But then closing the window leaves the window there, all grey, and it cannot be killed without restart. But I do not have
 any problems after a restart, everything is fine.

Wow!  I filed this almost three years ago!  (and it's been fixed for
about three years :-)

It can hide to us maybe because of the "Other" version.

I'm closing it. Do you agree Tim?
