Arduino IDE V2.3.5 Compilation Process Frequently Steals Focus, Causing Keyboard Input Interruption (Pop-up Windows Always on Top) #2698
Labels
conclusion: duplicate
Has already been submitted
type: imperfection
Perceived defect in any part of project
Describe the problem
During code compilation (Verify/Upload), Arduino IDE 2.3.5 forcibly captures mouse focus and displays pop-up windows (e.g., log panels or error prompts) that remain on top, preventing users from using the keyboard for other operations (e.g., switching windows or editing code). This issue is particularly noticeable in complex projects or during prolonged compilation, severely impacting development efficiency.
Examples:
The IDE main window or pop-ups stay on top during compilation, blocking input to other applications.
To reproduce
Windows 10 64BIT
complie and upload show verbose output during

Trigger Compilation: Click "Verify" or "Upload".
Expected behavior
Feature Suggestion: Propose adding a "Silent Compilation Mode" to disable non-critical pop-ups
