EVALUATION This sounds like an AWT issue. ###@###.### 2004-09-02 Looks like the known issue with Window and override redirect property ###@###.### 2004-09-03 Name: yn153226 Date: 09/03/2004 Every window with override-redirect attribute would behave this way as window manager doesn't control it. To fix this, we should explicitly track a current virtual desktop number and show/hide window in our code. Fixable but risky for tiger; I would recommend to use undecorated Frame for a workaround. ###@###.### ======================================================================
