Description Harald Koester 2012-02-02 05:03:09 UTC
Problem description: 

Steps to reproduce:
[1] Open 2 new text documents
[2] Open a dialog box in one of the documents (e.g. Format > Character...)
[3] Change to the other document (with Alt+Tab / click into other window / Windows task bar)
[4] Also open a dialog box in this document (e.g. Format > Character...)
[5] A change back to the other document (with Alt+Tab / click into other window / Windows task bar) is not possible.
The Bug also exists if you use a text document and a drawing. Hence I believe, that the bug exists for all kind of LO documents.
If you have a third document with no dialog box open, a change to this document is possible.

Expected behavior: A change between documents should always be possible, especially if dialog boxes are displayed.

Bug also in 3.5.0 release.
Comment 2 sasha.libreoffice 2012-05-14 07:23:42 UTC
Thanks for bugreport
reproduced in 3.5.3 on Fedora 64 bit and Windows 7 32 bit
not reproduced in 3.3.4 on Fedora, so possible regression

IMHO LibreOffice thinks that both dialogs belongs to one document and can not correctly switch document before dialog closed
Comment 3 Harald Koester 2012-11-27 14:50:36 UTC
Bug still exists in Version 3.6.3.
Comment 4 A (Andy) 2014-09-27 17:26:50 UTC
reproducible with LO 4.3.2.2 (Win 8.1)
