A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
I've got several workspaces in WindowMaker to
separate window placement.

This was not an issue with NetBeans 3.6 and jdk1.4.2_05

Let's say I've got two windows open in the first workplace, say Mozilla and NetBeans. I can switch between windows with Alt+Tab. I've also got second
workplace where xterms are located with output from tail -f <tomcat log files>. I can switch between workplaces with Ctrl+Alt+-> from first to the second and with Ctrl+Alt+<- from the second to the first.

If I focus mozilla window and go to the second workplace and return to the first one mozilla does not have focus. It's stolen by NetBeans. Why it does that is out of my imagination. NetBeans got the focus because if I type some characters they are typed in the editor.

It's not a netbeans problem. other java applications behave the same.


REPRODUCIBILITY :
This bug can be reproduced always.
