Re: Dialog owner issue with Mac OS X 10.4
1) Mac OS X 10.3.9
Safari 1.3.2 (v312.6)
JVM - 1.4.2_09
Here whenever the Browser, running the Applet comes on Top, the
Dialog also comes on Top i.e. if the dialog is hidden behind some window
& I click on the browser running the applet, the Dialog(showing "Hello",
"OK")
also becomes uncovered/visible.
2) Mac OS X 10.4.5
Safari 2.0.3 (v417.8)
JVM - 1.4.2_09
Here clicking on the Browser doesn't make the Dialog Visible.
As per the Java Docs, I think the Behaviour on OS X 10.3.9 is the
correct behaviour.
Is there a way to have that behaviour on OS X 10.4 - any workarounds,
anything I can do so that the dialog doesn't get hidden.
I cannot make the dialog modal.
you have to change a bit showDlg():
public void showDlg() {
if (myDialog == null) {
// Set The Applet as owner
final Frame f = findFrame(this);
final Window [] d = new Window[1];
if (f != null) {
f.addWindowListener(new WindowAdapter() {
public void windowActivated(WindowEvent e) {
if(d[0] == null || d[0] != f) {
myDialog.toFront();
}
}
});
System.out.println("Found Frame");
myDialog = new Dialog(f, false);
myDialog.addWindowListener(new WindowAdapter() {
public void windowActivated(WindowEvent e) {
d[0] = e.getOppositeWindow();
}
public void windowDeactivated(WindowEvent e) {
d[0] = e.getOppositeWindow();
}
});
myDialog.add(new Label("Hello "), BorderLayout.NORTH);
myDialog.add(new Button("OK"), BorderLayout.SOUTH);
myDialog.pack();
myDialog.show();
}
}
}
