Description cno 2007-09-10 17:51:24 UTC 
To reproduce:
- with Writer document
- open Navigator (F5)
- new Writer document (Ctrl-N)
- start typing your text ...
> nothing appears on the screen; the Navigator has grabbed the focus.

Try the same steps in Calc
> typing can start immediately 'cause the focus is on A1.

Would be a nice improvement if that works in Writer as well.
Thanks - Cor

I am not able to reproduce this with OOG680m4 or m5 build. Focus is always in
text even though the Navigator was active on start of OOo or Writer document.

Hi,
I am currently on Suse with Novel OOo 2.0.4
Bug reported from XP with RC1 (m3 ?)
Behaviour the same.

I notice a detail however navigator has to be docked.
Sorry for not telling this immediately.
Comment 3 michael.ruess 2007-09-11 11:05:40 UTC 
MRU->CD: in a Writer document when the Navigator is docked and you create
another Writer document, the focus is not in the text.
Comment 4 carsten.driesner 2007-09-13 12:35:05 UTC 
cd: Accepted. I don't know why this only happens for the Navigator and not for
the Stylist.
Comment 5 cno 2007-09-13 12:52:42 UTC 
@cd: there are more special things with windows.
The 'silent' thread 
http://ux.openoffice.org/servlets/ReadMsg?list=discuss&msgNo=293
holds an attachment, with a quite long overview.
Maybe it is of any help, or the maybe the other way round: that work on this
isseu shines some light on another issue.

Strange behaviors!

I was able to reproduce the bug in Xubuntu 7.10 but only in OO Writer. The F5
shortcut strangely does not work with OO Spreadsheet in XUbuntu 7.10. When you
press F5 it does not do anything.

In Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition Version 2002 Service Pack 2, using
OpenOffice 2.3.0 and Component Writer. I COULD NOT reproduce the same issue when
I tried it. When I did F5, Ctrl-N after that, and started typing then Writer let
me type on the document as it should have, so I could not reproduce the bug. 

Also, the OO Calc works fine. You do an F5 and Ctrl-N then start typing and it
types in the very first cell (A1).
Comment 8 philipp.lohmann 2009-01-06 14:34:10 UTC 
cd: this is most likely due to an unreliably Window::Show with SHOW_NOACTIVATE;
on Unix X11 this is currently not implemented at all; see issue 93515 which will
enable this for the most common window managers. Without that a newly shown
window will most likely get the focus, regardiless the SHOW_NOACTIVATE. I guess
you can close this one as duplicate to 93515.
