Synopsis: Cannot refocus Clusters tool via shortcut

Description

If I open a class by hitting Enter on the class's name in the Clusters tool, the class opens in the Editor. Focus shifts from the Clusters tool to the Editor.

If I then type the keyboard shortcut for the Clusters tool, nothing happens. The Editor remains focussed.

The same problem occurs if I try the View| Tools | Clusters menu.

I can work around this bug by hitting Esc, followed by the Clusters shortcut.

I fixed a metric tool focus problem. Hope that was the one you described. Thanks.

I had the Metric tool floating on top of the main window. I was working in it, then I left it open like that for hours while I did other things outside EiffelStudio. Then I switched to EiffelStudio in order to close it, and I just happened to notice that the Metrics tool had the same problem.

So I'm not sure of the exact steps, but I'm sure it must be easy to reproduce.

I only fixed the problem in Cluster tool. But the fix might fix some similar problems.
For Metric tool, how did you reproduce this? So that I can check.

The same problem occurs with Metrics (Ctrl+Alt+M). Does it happen with all tools?
