My form always stays on top

MarcoTC:
Hello,

I ran into Lazarus a while ago but finally installed the latest stables from the website yesterday. I love it! It brings back good memories when programming in Delphi 1-7.

Anyways, I'm on a Mac and switched on the Cocoa Widgetset (Projects>Project Options...>Additions and Overrides).

Not everything works good but I can handle or avoid most of it. However, one thing I cannot figure out.
With Cocoa, my form always stays on top. When I click outside the form, it looses focus but it stays on top. I have no idea why or how to let it behave normally. With switching back to Carbon, all works fine.

To duplicate; Open a new project, switch on Cocoa, Build and run. Then click somewhere outside of the running project and you'll see what I mean.

I assume this is a bug but is there a workaround or an easy way to fix this?

skalogryz:
You might want to try (svn) trunk version.

Cocoa is in development, thus the trunk version might have the issue fixed. Also, some of the other issues you encountered might be fixed as well.

Besides the stable release won't be fixed until... the next release. While using trunk you'll always get the latest fixed as soon as they're available.

MarcoTC:
Many thanks but no luck.  :(
I just installed the latest Lazarus SVN using 'svn co http://svn.freepascal.org/svn/lazarus/trunk lazarus'.
The about now says Lazarus 1.5. SVN 49123
I'm not sure if that's enough though. Do I also need trunks from fpcsrc and fpc?

If not, where do I report this bug to the team working on it?
Thank you

Typically not. Are yo unable to compile Lazarus or is trunk Lazarus showing the same problem with the form?
