Bug 184836 Missing shell activation events
Reported: 2007-05-01 07:16:09 | Status: verified fixed

When swapping between eclipse and other apps (xterm, firefox) using ALT+TAB I get into this state where eclipse won't accept key strokes any more. typing in a java editor won't do anything. But clicking through eclipse (like the outline view) works. The Shell is active (highlighted) but the tab of the active view/editor within eclipse is coloured like it is still inactive. I've also see the tab remain coloured active when I TAB out of eclipse. But if I click out of eclipse, it is properly grey. PW
