FULL PRODUCT VERSION :
java version "1.8.0_141"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_141-b15)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.141-b15, mixed mode)
ADDITIONAL OS VERSION INFORMATION :
Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.15063]
A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
If you have a main window, minimise it and then if a modal alert appears on that window, when you un minimise the main window, it will be unresponsive as the modal pop up has stolen the focus, but it is not seen anywhere on screen.
STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
Run the test code supplied and minimise it, then un minimise.
The test code adds a listener to the stage.iconifiedProperty so that when it is minimised it shows an Alert.
EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
The behaviour on the Mac is that if you have an Alert on a minimised window, it appears irrespective of the minimised state of the main window.
The Windows OS should behave the same.
ACTUAL -
When you un minimise the window, it appears totally un responsive to user interaction as the invisible Alert has got the focus.
REPRODUCIBILITY :
This bug can be reproduced always.
