I recently switched from Eclipse Galileo to Eclipse Juno. On Juno I found out a very annoying inconvenience: Whenever I am debugging and I step from one editor into another (when pressing F5 steps into another file), the focus is lost and I have to click on the new editor in order to continue using F5 or F6. In Galileo, I would continue debugging by pressing F5 without having to re-focus the editor. Is that a bug, a change or a feature with options that I could switch off?
thanks.
it seems you're no alone with this problem in Juno. Take a look at this bug in eclipse maybe it will help you:

I installed Eclemma on Eclipse Neon and the guide says I should be able to find an icon on the toolbar like above. However, I cannot find it and I searched online about this problem and saw some people having trouble with it. But I haven't found a solution to it..
I uninstalled and re-installed Eclemma but I still can't find the icon.
I’ve just had the same problem and a web search led me to this page. If you are using Windows 7 and Eclipse Neon, I found I could get the coverage button to appear (and work) if I:
Run Eclipse as administrator (right click and look for the menu item)
Install Eclemma as normal.
If prompted to restart Eclipse, click on “no”.
Manually close Eclipse
Run Eclipse again as administrator.
From eclipse open Window > Perspective > Customize Perspective
Go to "Action Set Availability" tab
In the "Available action sets" pane check "Java Code Coverage" checkbox
Click Ok
Use the keys CTRL + SHFT + F11! It worked on my windows 10.
I have a GoClipse project in Eclipse Neon that I am attempting to debug. On my work computer I am able to create a new breakpoint by clicking on the left side of the code window, but on my home computer this is not working. Is there somthing that I do not have enabled on my home computer?
How do I make a breakpoint in Eclipse Neon using GoClipse?
Did you double click on the editor column? Or opened the context menu there? Just a single-click won't work.
I'm having a strange issue with the Eclipse IDE on Ubuntu.
When opening a modal dialog in eclipse and then switching to another tool, like my browser, and then switching back again, the modal dialog I had open seems to disappear.
Is there any way to get the dialog back into focus? This is quite annoying when the dialogs are modal. So far, the only way I can get it working again is to exit the IDE, and then open it again.
Thanks for helping.
This is a bug in Unity and is not limited to Eclipse - https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity/+bug/1584885.
Unfortunately the only workaround as mentioned in the comments is to close Eclipse - right-click on the Eclipse icon in the taskbar and select 'Quit' (you might have to do it more than once until Eclipse responds).
You could also upgrade to Ubuntu 18.04 which features GNOME instead of Unity.
I routinely download the latest 'Eclipse IDE for Java EE Developers' and add Aptana Studio to it. I recently did this with Juno 4.2.2 and Aptana Studio 3.4.0. Now, I find that in the html or css editors, the cmd-f key still brings up the find/replace bar once. But when I ESCape out of that find bar, the cmd-f command no longer works until I switch to another editor window and then return to the first one. Then, cmd-f works, but again only one more time. The 'Edit-->Find/Replace menu item works consistently', so I think it has something to do with key bindings.
I also tried downloading the standalone Aptana Studio 3.4.0 and it doesn't have this issue.
Never had this problem before. Any ideas?
Me too. Its super annoying since I use Aptana all day.
Workaround: You can work around it by disabling the Aptana Find Bar in Preferences and restart Eclipse (this means you have to use the default Eclipse search dialog). Just move it out of the way while you're searching. If you disable it and go back to the old Eclipse search, you also get the ability to use the keyboard shortcuts for the items under the "Commands" menu.
Here's an aptana ticket for this bug: https://jira.appcelerator.org/browse/APSTUD-7850
I am running eclipse Juno (4.2.1) on OpenSuSE 11.4.
I assigned the shortcut ctrl+b to the action "build project" having the context "in windows".
When editing code in the C/C++ Editor, the shortcut doesn't have any effect, the project will not be built.
This worked perfectly in previous versions of eclipse.
Anyone having the same issue?
I encountered this in Juno as well. I've read that it is a bug that was introduced. It's apparently described here:
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=383497
...which seems to indicate that 4.2.2 will have a fix.
As a partial workaround, you can associate "make target" dialogue with the ctrl+b shortcut. That's what I did.
