When compiling source that has an error the compile tab does not grab focus as it has in previous versions.
This does not seem to me like editor bug. I move this bug to core for evaluation.
reproducible on [nb_dev](20020910), [jdk1.4.1](fcs) on Solaris 5.8
changed owner Dafe -> Peter Z.
reassign to Tim, new owner of AWT/Swing
Changing component to UI - please clarify what should happen - some people strongly feel the output window should get focus; others strongly feel the editor should retain focus (part of the problem may be that it's hard to tell that the output window has focus - it just seems like the keyboard doesn't work). HIE folks, could you come up with a recommendation? It's easy to fix either way - we just need to decide which.
According to UI spec for new window system focus should not be grabbed. Use shortcut instead to transfer focus to Output window.
