Wireshark · Ethereal-dev: [Ethereal-dev] More Window selection silliness with 0.10.5?

[Ian Schorr <ethereal@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,

In the latest of the window selection silliness, some behavior seems to 
have reverted in the distributed Win32 0.10.5.

When generating statistics windows (SRT, conversation list, etc), the 
main ethereal window is brought to the foreground (I'm assuming because 
the progress dialog is created and is somehow "tied" to the main 
window).  The new statistics window is left hidden behind and must be 
selected by the user manually.

This seemed like a problem in earlier versions (with some workarounds 
that didn't seem to work very well), but seemed to work great with 
0.10.4.

Is this a Win32 GTK 2.4 thing?  It definitely doesn't happen with 
GTK1.3.  I haven't built recent codes with GTK 2.2.

This has also happened to me for a VERY long time with GTK 1.2.10, 
2.2.4, 2.0.x with OS X, where it's especially annoying (buried X11 
windows are a bit more of a pain to find).

Thanks,
Ian
