I also On a Mac can not stop the user from being able to drag the
parent
frame when a dialog box is shown. The parent frame is not enabled but
when
you click on the title bar you ca still drag it around. Is there any
way of
stopping this.
Is the dialog modal?
In the 1.4+ JVMs, when a modal dialog is up you can drag the
other windows (parent or otherwise) around. They do not come
forward in the Z-order. Older JVMs behaved like other Mac
applications, you could only do this by CMD-clicking on the
title bar of a window you want to drag around. That feature
has been part of the Mac GUI since around System 7.5 (IIRC).
FYI, it works for all window types at all times, not just
when a modal dialog is up. I find it convenient when I want
to move a lower window to unmask an even lower window, but
not bring them all to the front. For some reason Apple saw
fit to remove the requirement for the CMD key in 1.4.x.
