EVALUATION It is not the focus that is not what is expected, but the active window. This behavior has very litle to do with Java Web Start. We just create a JFileChooser, Swing or the OS decide where activation goes when it's dismissed. ###@###.### 2002-05-21 investigate for mantis ###@###.### 2002-07-23 Problem is only on windows. I can fix the problem by changing the PrefsPanel to become a modal dialog. Then the preferences panel becomes active after closing the filechooser in both windows and solaris. But do we want the PrefsPanel to become modal? I also contacted the AWT focus team for comments on this problem. ###@###.### 2002-10-07
