[TC 8.0b17 x64] Losing focus when closing Choose Command

[ayww]

Closing the "Choose Command" window (e.g. after opening Configuration -> Buttonbar -> click on magnifier) via the window close button (X at top right) causes TC to lose focus and switch to other programs running.

Clicking Cancel in "Choose Command" window always works fine.

I have tested on Windows XP 32Bit and Windows XP x64:

It only happens on WinXP x64 with TC 64Bit.

WinXP 32Bit and TC 32Bit is ok.
WinXP x64 and TC 32Bit is ok.


I think this might be the same as here:

Probably, except in this case, there is no flickering, when I press Cancel.

I can confirm this.

It does NOT happen if I open the dialog by using cm_CommandBrowser.

But it happens if I open the dialog using the magnifying button in:
1. Change button bar
2. Change start menu
3. Change directory menu
4. Configuration -> Misc. -> Redifine hotkeys

Yes, it's the same problem. It's a bug in Lazarus (certain inherited methods of a common form ancestor are not called). Calling the functions manually seems to do the trick, but I have to change that in all dialogs (I already did it in some of them).

Partially fixed in beta 18. There is still a difference:
1. Open "Choose Command" dialog.
2. Focus to another application.
3. Refocus to "Choose Command" dialog.

Now when you close it with Cancel, the focus stays in TC. But if you close it with X, the other app becomes focused.

Sorry, this cannot be prevented.
