I have a problem with the Racket GUI where the main application window looses focus if two dialog boxes are opened than closed. The problem occurs when the main window opens the first dialog box and the first dialog box opens the second one on top of it. Once both dialog boxes are closed, the main window looses focus and goes to the bottom of the window stack (i.e. behind other windows). This does not seem to happen if only one dialog box is opened than closed -- in that case the main window will have the focus.
Could someone confirm if this behaviour is seen on other platforms (I use Windows), and perhaps offer a workaround? I attached a sample application that illustrates the problem below and you can also find the code here: https://gist.github.com/alex-hhh/20b3f1000813677330bbd2b85c57d319 Too see the problem, this code needs to be compiled into a stand-alone executable (using the Racket/Create Executable... from DrRacket). #lang racket (require racket/gui) (define toplevel (new frame% [label "Hello World"] [width 800] [height 600])) (define dialog-1 (new dialog% [parent toplevel] [label "Dialog 1"] [width 400] [height 300])) (define dialog-2 (new dialog% [parent dialog-1] [label "Dialog 2"] [width 200] [height 150])) (define (on-open-dialog1 button event) (send dialog-1 show #t)) (define (on-close-dialog1 button event) (send dialog-1 show #f)) (define (on-open-dialog2 button event) (send dialog-2 show #t)) (define (on-close-dialog2 button event) (send dialog-2 show #f)) (define b1 (new button% [parent toplevel] [label "Open Dialog 1..."] [callback on-open-dialog1])) (define b2 (new button% [parent dialog-1] [label "Open Dialog 2..."] [callback on-open-dialog2])) (define b3 (new button% [parent dialog-1] [label "Close Dialog 1"] [callback on-close-dialog1])) (define b4 (new button% [parent dialog-2] [label "Close Dialog 2"] [callback on-close-dialog2])) (send toplevel show #t) Thanks, Alex. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Racket Users" group.
