Created attachment 283957 [details] Minimal working example that illustrates the problem. The basic motivation is to have an always-on-top toolbar that appears but does not take focus. Since seemingly, one cannot create a Shell without it receiving focus, one would like to manually transfer focus back to the main (original) Shell. Steps to reproduce (please also consider the attached example): 1) In some Shell, open() another Shell with the SWT.ON_TOP flag. 2) In some callback that should trigger after the new Shell was openened, call setFocus on an element in the original Shell. Actual results: The focus is not given back to the original Shell. Expected results: The focus should be given to the element in the original shell that .setFocus() was called on. This seems to be specific to GTK and the current version of SWT: * Works on Linux/GTK and SWT 4.7.3 * Does not work with Linux/GTK and SWT 4.16 * Works on Win10 and SWT 4.7.3 * Works on Win10 and SWT 4.16 A potential workaround for Linux/GTK is using only the SWT.TOOL flag since that seems to provide always-on-top behaviour -- but not on Windows.
Could you please try also with 4.17 M3?

(In reply to Benjamin Moser from comment #2) > Also does not work with 4.17M3. Thanks for confirmation. Note: the version field in bugzilla is for the fist version the bug appeared on, not for the last.
