Focus gets lost in some cases
Status: Beta
Brought to you by:

I'm using:
- SWT/Fox 3.0.0.04
- Fox 1.2.11
- Eclipse 3.0.1 (200409161125)
In some cases (Replace with latest from HEAD, update
only few files in synchronize perspective) the
operation is performed, but no component gets the focus
then and clicking anywhere to set the focus gives only
a 'beep'. Have to kill Eclipse.

Another scenario where I lost focus:
I edited build-path in tree->properties->build-path, the
path-dialog appeard, averything worked fine but when the
eclipse-window itself should receive inputs it only made
beeped, (it had fucus, at least did windowbar show this) it
did not respond to events (mouse-klick and keyboard) -
mouseover events worked fine.

I think it occurs, when an operation that should open some
kind of progress dialog does not take long enough so that
the progress dialog will not be shown. It seems that this
dialog that will not be shown gets the focus and it does not
give it back to the main window.
Now that I know this behavior I have have changed the way
how I execute some operations, but sometimes I simple
forget. It's very annoying to have to kill and restart
Eclipse several times a day.

please fix this - I have to regulary kill eclipse because
of focus problems - this seem to be nearly the last problems
that are still there.
Everything else really works fine - thx!

Increased the priority: this is still the most annoying problem left. Please
try to fix it. Thanks for your work so far!

any ideas why this really happens (not just assumptions?)
