How to give a focus to a JDialog when I focused on its JFrame?
Of course, if its opened.
I ask that because I sometimes open some other application, while my is
running (JFrame with JDialog opened). Then I want my application again but
I got it without JDialog which become visible after I minimize "other
application".
Thank you

this is well known bug...

add WindowListener to your frame and run following code on windowActivated

Window [] windows = frame.getOwnedWindows();
for(int i = 0; i < windows.length; i++) {
windows[i].toFront();
}
