Description pzgyuanf 2012-10-06 04:49:08 UTC

Steps:
1. debug a sample to open the Variables window
2. scroll down a bit and highlighting a row by click
2. switch to other window, say 'Call Stack'
3. switch back to the 'Variables' window
4. the Variable window scroll back to the top of the window (then the focus-- the highlighting row was lost)

Expected:
keep the highlighting row and the scroll location.

Thanks,
Pprun

The issue is also reproduced in the Java environment.

By the way, we have not got a possibility to save and restore the highlighting and scrolling state of a TreeModel's node (e.g., there is the function isExpanded in the interface TreeExpansionModel, which allows providing the expansion state).
