BUG: Personal Book stealing focus when in floating window
If Personal Book tab is open in an floating window it's stealing the focus. Only way to get focus to any other window is to close the Personal Book tab.

I'm not able to reproduce this. Tried with both a particular Personal Book and the main PB list tab, and neither had this problem.

Opening the Personal Book module from Tools menu and then Ctrl + F11 to get it in a floating window. Then I can't get focus to the main window until I close the PB tab.
Could this be an Win XP issue?

Ah yes, now I can reproduce. But it only happens at first. If I do Alt+Tab once, the focus won't go back to the main window, but then if I do Alt+Tab again, it does go back. And from that point on (as long as the floating window is still open) I can Alt+Tab back and forth between it with no problems. So it's just that first time after it's opened that I can't. Also, I can't click back on the main window after opening the PB tool in a floating window. But Alt+Tab twice will do it and from then on click will work.
Something weird is indeed going on.
And it's not just XP. I'm running Windows 7.

I am able to reproduce this, but inconsistently. It was very weird, the first time I floated the book (PB) to its own window on a second screen, it made it so I couldn't do anything else in any other Logos panels (Not sure it was a focus issue). I closed the floated personal book and then reopened it and I was able to use other panels.

I figured it out:
1. It steals focus only when floated from the menu:
Using ctrl-f11 or opening it as a floated window directly from the library menu allows it to work correctly without stealing focus:

If I do Alt+Tab to get back to the main window the PB (in floating window) interpret it as a Tab command and just switch focus between the menu and the Add book button:
I have to do Alt+Tab to another application to "release" this window. If I Alt+tabbing to LibreOffice and then tab back it works. But if tabbing to Firefox a have to click in the adress field before tabbing back to get it to work.
