Hi

suppose we do have different Shell windows (that are not modal) and the
first (main) shell window is maximized.

If the user clicks in the maximized shell window the other shell's are
hidden behind the maximized shell window.

How can these be accessed by the user now?

Thanks
Andrej

Hi Andrej,

I guess what you are looking for is some sort of window manager or task
bar.
Currently, there is no way for the user to access these shells. Except
your application provides a means to access obscured shells.
Unlike SWT, that does not provide such a mechanism by itself but is
backed by a proper operation system, RWT would have to implement this by
itself.
We already had some thoughts on a task manager but I doubt that this
will be realized for the short term.

Cheers,
Rüdiger

Hi Rüdiger

you are absolutly right, that's what i was looking for.
So until some sort of a Task Manager is available, i will set new Shell's
to application-modal.

Thanks
Andrej
