Bug Description

There's an intermittent bug, with current precise and unity-2d, where entering and leaving the hud (by tapping Alt twice, or Alt Esc) puts you back in a different window from the one that originally had focus. It's really disruptive!

It has happened repeatedly for me, but I can't work out how to reproduce it on demand.

Martin, does this occur in Unity as well, or are you seeing it in 2D only?

Hi Charles,

This is on unity-2d. I haven't tested 3d for it yet.

This is a Unity 2D issue then. The appmenu doesn't manage windows.

This is made ridiculously worse by the fact that pressing alt-tab sometimes enters the hud - so alt-tab ends up sometimes taking you to a random window :(
