The fix is included in NeoOffice 3.0.1 Early Access Patch 2. It is normal behavior for the floating window to remain in front when switching between documents so the test patch has fixed the bug.įYI. Thank you for testing the latest test patch and reporting your results here. When the font color palette was opened, it stayed at the forefront while I switched between each window.not sure if this was normal behavior or not. I'm pondering the immortal words of Socrates who said, "I drank what?" Neo switched flawlessly between all four using the keyboard shortcut. Tested this patch on 2.1ghz macbook with 4gb ram on 10.5.8 by opening two. (This is unlikely to be of much use for 2.2.6 which I only fire up if I am responding to a query about it.) I hope that there isn't any problems, but I only did very narrow testing and since I had to change some very core window management code, please let us know if my fix causes any new, strange behavior in NeoOffice.Ĭan you install the following test patch and tell us if it is fixed for you?:įYI I am downloading these two patches (for PowerPC running 10.4.11) and will report if any problems show up. I think that I have fixed this Apple Java bug. I consider the bug I've reported as a minor one only, but I thought it would be a good idea to report it anyway. This seems a perfectly reasonable approach to me. I just wanted to warn you that you may not see a test patch for at least a few days as I suspect that I will need to reverse engineer the Java changes that Apple has made in their Java 1.6 release. I will continue to work on these two bugs. What is happening is that Java is deadlocking. The hanging occurs when you open several new document windows at the same time on Snow Leopard and then move one of those windows while it is in the process of opening. I suspect that Java 1.6 on Snow Leopard is preventing windows from going to the back of the window stack and that is what is causing the problem.Īdditionally, I found a hanging bug while debugging your bug that I think is worthwhile spending a day or two debugging and fixing. I have been debugging this bug all evening and I wanted to warn you that I think this might be a tough one to fix. I will investigate this further and post when I have any news to report. I can reproduce this as well when I have a floating window open but I cannot reproduce it when no floating windows are open so it appears that the floating window is something triggering this bug. I cannot reproduce it on Mac OS X 10.4.11. When switching in NeoOffice between open documents (windows) using the keyboard shortcut, NeoOffice cycles between the top two documents only rather than all open documents.ĭo you have a floating window open, such as Styles and Formatting? I am able to reproduce this with NeoOffice 3.0.1 Early Access Patch 1 on Mac OS X 10.6.1 when a floating window is open.
