            Bug ID: 116512
           Summary: FILEOPEN: Text Import dialogue box hides behind empty
                    spreadsheet when importing CSV
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.0.2.1 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: Mac OS X (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Calc
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: tagishsimon at gmail.com

Description:
Double-clicking on a CSV file in Finder (on a mac) causes OO Calc to open the
file (presuming appropriate file associations) ... OO Calc will put up a Text
Import dialogue box allowing the user to specify character set, seperators,
etc.

When double-clicking on a CSV file in Finder, with OO Calc already open and
with an existing spreadsheet window open & being displayed, OO puts up a blank
spreadsheet window, and puts up the Text Import dialogue box  ... but hides the
Text Import dialogue box behind the blank spreadsheet window. The unsuspecting
user can see the blank spreadsheet window, but may have no clue that there's a
Text Import dialogue box open.

Note that when clicking on a CSV in finder:
- with OO closed, the Text Import dialogue box is foregrounded
- with OO open, but no files open, the Text Import dialogue box is foregrounded
- with OO open, and with a calc file minimised, the Text Import dialogue box is
foregrounded
- with OO open, and with a calc file being displayed, the Text Import dialogue
box is BACKGROUNDED


The Text Import dialogue box

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open openoffice
2. Create a spreadsheet, and leave the spreadsheet window displayed (i.e. do
not minimise it)
3. Go to Finder
4. Double-click on a .CSV file


Actual Results:  
The Text Import dialogue box is hidden behind a blank spreadsheet

Expected Results:
The Text Import dialogue box is foregrounded in front of a blank spreadsheet,
or, the Text Import dialogue box alone is displayed ... the user should see the
dialogue box which requires her attention; the dialogue box should not be
hidden behind a window


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No
