Summary0001198: LA: 'About Paraview' window opens behind main window
DescriptionThe first time I select the menu Help->About paraview 1.7
the window comes up as I'd expect. If I close it and open it again, it comes up behind the main PV window. Of course it's a blocking dialog box, and so all the other PV controls are disabled.

I can reproduce it on the Mac only. Which linux distribution are you using? Thanks.

In this case, I was running on Linux, displaying X to Darwin.

Confirmation that this is due to a broken X11 on MacOSX. Changing OS to Mac.
