71518 - Window focus is not set on Profile Manager after the browser is launched.

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(SeaMonkey :: Startup & Profiles, defect)

Description

[ji]

After the browser is launched, the window focus is not set on profile manager
window. It's not convenient when you want to use Tab key to go through the buttons.

To see it,  just launch browser by ./netscape -profilemanager or /.netscape in
case you have more than one profiles.

This problem doesn't exist on Windows or Mac build.

Is this also the bug that I'm seeing when I launch in Win2k.
My profile manager starts behind the other windows, so you cannot see it.

If so, this should be given a high priority, and it is not Windows only.
If not, a new bug needs to be filed.

I agree that Aaron's issue is a high-priority. The Profile Manager should always 
appear on top pf everything else, and should be the focus when it appears. 
Should I file a new bug for this? Or does this one cover it?

Profile Manager FE bugs --> me

I also always see the 'profile manager appears behind all other windows'. I am 
also usuing Win 2k, with the N6.1 PR1 release.

To a new user, it may appear though Netscape simply isn't starting

I think this is important to fix.

Seems to me like bug 65974 should have fixed this.  If that's not the case, 
please reopen.

[Steve Parkinson]

I don't see the problem with the latest builds, so seems like the 
resolution is correct.

I agree, verifying on branch, 2001070604
adding vtrunk

Blake,
On trunk build, 2001081006 on Linux, focus remains in console from which I
execute the ./netscape command - which seems normal for this OS.    ie I must
click in any window I open before it gets focus.  
Should this be reopened?

focus  not on Profile Manager- build 2001083104

[Blake Ross]

This still works for me on Windows.  Did you reopen it because it isn't working 
on Linux?  As you said, I think that's the correct behavior.  Reclosing, please 
clarify (or verify).

I agree - correct behavior for Linux- not seeing on Windows
