Dialogs attached to a particular window should be 'transient' to that window. https://www.tcl.tk/man/tcl8.6/TkCmd/wm.htm#M64 It is an oversight that the window search and replace windows are not. Modal windows, including the current Find in Files might just as well be. PR 13869 for #37177 (aimed at a different symption) makes search windows transient, fixing this issue also. If Find in Files were not modal, then it need not be transient to a particular window, and minimizing could be sensible. But this is a separate issue. ---------- stage: needs patch -> versions: +Python 3.8, Python 3.9 -Python 3.6 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue24039> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
