Navigation problems between different Windows windows when the console is open

Hello,
I wanted to report a problem we're experiencing (tested on 3 PCs, the issue is identical).
When the WAPT console is open, we have trouble switching between windows (when I click on an application in my taskbar, I often have to click a second time for it to open).
The problem only occurs when the WAPT console is open.
Do you have any ideas? Are
any of you experiencing the same issue?

Hello,
I don't see the problem at all, I've never seen that before.

Hello,
that's very strange indeed.
I've tested it on several PCs, including a brand new one (without a master image and with the factory version of Windows), and I have the same problem.
Sometimes I have to click four times on one of the open applications for it to move to the front of the other windows.

Hello,
does the problem occur all the time or only during package import?

Hi Guillaume_ccfd,
we've already encountered this problem on a Lenovo machine, but we haven't been able to figure out the cause... Is it a Lazarus bug (the console development environment), a bug in our use of focus in the WAPT code (we're a bit too heavy-handed with it when importing packages), or a bug in certain mouse drivers or something else? We haven't been able to determine the cause.
In any case, having a management VM with the console configured in it is quite convenient, and the focus issue doesn't occur with an RDP connection. We'll see if that's a suitable solution.
Best regards,
Denis

Hi Denis,
We're experiencing the bug at any time. It might be related to our docking station (D6000 / WD19), but I don't think so (my techs have the same issue on desktop PCs). I'm not sure what to tell you; the only thing we have in common is possibly that we're using DisplayPort.
I've tried quite a few things:
- Updating graphics drivers
- Updating all PC drivers
- Updating the docking station firmware
- Updating the BIOS.
I should record the console's behavior (it would be clearer), especially since we've tried isolating several elements (testing with a manual Windows installer, testing with a brand new MDT master image, testing with an older version of Windows 10).
I'm going to see if it would be possible to virtualize the console using APP-V (maybe that would work around the problem).
