Please see also PRs: 1GD0HSK: ITPUI:ALL - Can't tell which detach wnd belong to which workbench wnd 1GD0HC8: ITPUI:ALL - DCR - Allow minimize of detach window To me, these detach window seem like "palettes" (if this was a graphics editor). A few years ago, I remember using one such product on the Mac which implemented its palette in a very helpful way - and it was done that the user did not even notice (the way a ui should be...not interfere with what the user is doing) Right now, the detach window always "float" above the workbench window. This means you are always shuffling windows around. Here is how this graphics package handled this case. When you were working with the palette, it was above the editor. Once your mouse left (or it may have required you click on the editor again), the palette would move below the editor (in the Z-order that is). When the mouse entered the palette and hovered for a specific amount of time at the same place, the palette came to the top...without the user clicking on it. Maybe we could do something along these lines for our detach windows? NOTES:
PRODUCT VERSION: 0.101 (JDK)
One of the many problems with detached windows...defer until enough cycles available to properly address all these issues.
