 Description  « Hide
I've seen a few entries on the subject, but none too generalized.

All I'm requesting is that an involuntary pop-up of any sort should NOT steal focus, especially in the case that your chat box is open (at the bottom or in chat history) and you have something typed and/or are typing something.

Pop-ups that do this?

  • World Map (scripted)
  • Modify Rights prompt, when given/taken from you. (I FREQUENTLY type through this and then have no idea what just happened.)
  • Scripts, when an error occurs while compiling. Suddenly you're typing through that section of code.

I'm sure there's a longer list than that.. but that's all that comes to mind immediately. Feel free to add more to it.

Yes, another one:
When you edit a script, compile it, minimize the window while it compiles and do something else (generally answer some IMs or edit another script).
Then if there is a compilation error, the script editor floater will be restored and will have focus (and you end up typing your IM or unrelated code in the script editor floater which had the error).

Haha yup, just tried that out. It is annoying.
