This might just be a bug in the way the multiwindow mode WM handles focus. Even if it isn't, a workaround in the multiwindow mode WM seems like a good idea. There are no guarantees about when. Patches thoughtfully considered. Sorry, I don't know enough about the Java windowing toolkit to know if this can be worked around in Java. > Trying to figure out what I can do to remedy the issue for my Windows > customers.
