Build with Find/Replace visible

[mjcoon]

I left the Find/Replace dialogue on-screen, put the focus back to the edit window and did "Build". The build-error pop-up appeared behind the Find/Replace dialogue so although it had the focus I could not address it properly. I could not move the Find/Replace dialogue to uncover it because it would not accept the focus.

Fortunately I could just see the edge of a button of the build-error pop-up, otherwise I might have had to kill the whole editor to get out of the bind.

A blocking dialogue with the focus needs to be on top!

Are you meaning the desktop IDE and by "Build" do you mean File -> Compile?

If so I can't reproduce this. On my system the Find/Replace dialog closes as soon as I select a menu item.

If the error message box had the focus wouldn't pressing the Enter key have closed it even if you couldn't see it?

Yes, and no, I was using the shortcut (Cntrl-B) for Debug -> Build

Possibly, which would have resolved the apparent lock-up. But I would prefer to be able to read the error message!

Ah! I see.

It does!, I've just tried it.

But I would prefer to be able to read the error message!

Recompile it again

Thanks for reporting it, it will be fixed in the next version.
