[XaraXtreme-dev] Active view problem

[Phil Martin <phil@xxxxxxxx>]

Alex,

I've just been looking into that problem where the cursor and status  
line flash back to "there's nothing under the pointer" values when  
two documents are open and you use the tabs to switch between them...

The previous thought was that the DocView::Selected was not being set  
properly but I've just found that that's not the problem. The problem  
is that DialogManager::GetWindowUnderPointer is returning a pointer  
to the same view window before and after clicking on the view tab.  
(That means wxChildWindowFromPoint is returning the wrong window  
pointer.)

It may be returning a pointer to the "topmost" view in the list of  
views.

Clearly when you click on the window this bad state gets cleared so  
there's probably something we can do in OnActivateView to overcome  
this. I'm investigating...
