Description Chris Dolan CLA 2007-09-24 09:57:21 EDT 
Build ID: I20070621-1340

Steps To Reproduce:
The first two steps may or may not be relevant -- not sure

1. Maximize the Eclipse workspace window
2. Drag the Properties view out to a separate tool window on a second monitor
3. Select a GUI element in the visual editor GUI preview, like a pane
4. Click on the "font" property in the Properties view
5. Click on the "..." button that appears to the right of the font label

Actual results: the first time you do this, the font dialog is created behind the Eclipse workspace window.  You need to un-maximize and move it to find the font dialog.  On subsequent attempts, the font dialog appears on top as expected

Expected results: the font dialog is on top of the Properties view and perhaps is modal


More information:
Using VE version 1.3.0.200709121813 from EasyEclipse.org

I do not recall having this problem with 1.2.3+jem under Eclipse 3.2, but I do not think I ever tried to set a font property that way under 1.2.3.
