Description G. Landini 2011-04-27 10:05:25 CDT

Could you please have a look at these 3 issues:

1. The "adjust threshold" dialog disappears (goes to the background) in 3DViewer full screen mode as soon as one starts adjusting the threshold.
This does not happen with the transparency dialog, so I guess it is a bug.

2. Calling a new threshold OR transparency adjusters creates a new dialog instead of bringing back the one already open.

3. When one closes the main 3DViewer window, the extra dialogs remain open. I think they should be closed.

Bene?

Actually on my system I am not able to access _anything_ except the 3D Viewer window itself when it is full screen. I am not sure there is much that can be done about this, since I am guessing it is a property of how Java and/or Java3D and/or OpenGL handles full screen. It may even be platform specific.

From Curtis' reply I do really understand the comment, so here goes my explanation again:
Transparency slider/dialog remains always on top
Threshold slider/dialog always goes to the background as soon as you click anything else. You cannot bring it back.

This is in full screen or the default window size.
This is neither consistent or expected. If the transparency dialog can be kept on the foreground, I cannot understand why the threshold dialog cannot.
