Here is yet another focus bug. I haven't found the sequence of events that reproduces this reliably. I will be typing in a window in the editor. The If I switch windows or desktop screen using the mouse (not Alt-TAB), come back to the editor and select a new file from the editor tabs, the focus remains in the previous file. So when I type in file B.java but I originally had focus in A.jave, all keystrokes are sent to B.java. The only way to get out of it is to switch windows, sometimes you must switch screens on the desktop, sometimes... Once, it got so bad that no matter what I tried I could never get the focus to budge from the original file. I had to switch from SDI to MDI and back to regain focus. NB3.2 build 39 SDI.
There should be a warning when adding a bug report as guest...
