Whenever a modal dialog box is popped up from a floating pane, application icon is not displayed in the Alt+Tab window.

Can anyone help me? Thanks!

Hi,

You can add

AfxGetMainWnd()->SetFocus();
before popup modal dialog.

It doesn't work.

1. Open a modal dialog.

2. Press alt+tab to switch to another application.

3. Press alt+tab to switch back.

4. Press alt+tab again, the application icon is missing.

Hello,

Now I can't reproduce it.

Please try open GUI_VisualStudio sample and modify

void CPropertiesPane::OnPanePropertiesCategorized()
{
AfxGetMainWnd()->SetFocus();
CAboutDlg f;
f.DoModal();

}

Do you see problem when click Categorized button in PropetyPane?

Thanks for your reply!!!

In my application, when a modal dialog is active, press 'alt+tab' to switch to another and then swich back. No window gets focus, while in your suggested case, the about dialog gets the focus. I can't figure it out.

Could you help me?
