Hi,

at some point in the last few months, the focus button disappeared from the
Package Explorer view (in the Java perspective), when the editor is
maximised. However the button does appear if the editor is not maximised, so
that I have both the editor view and the Package Explorer visible. This
seems to hold true regardless of the type of editor.

Is this a known issue?

I use Mylyn 3.3.0 on Eclipse 3.5.1 on Linux. I have several additional
plugins installed, like the Groovy plugin, Spring Tool Suite and more.

Cheers,

Marcus

Which Gtk version are you running? Eclipse 3.5.1 has some known
incompatibilities with Gtk 2.18 which is used on Ubuntu 9.10. You can set
"export GDK_NATIVE_WINDOWS=true" to work around some of the problems:

291257: [Widgets] Buttons functionality problem with GTK+ 2.18

Please file a bug and include a screenshot if that does not help.
