Follow-up Comment #13, bug #54720 (project octave):
@gilo: I read the Matlab documentation again and here is what I understand
(I'll assume that msgbox is only a modal dialog box in disguise, see bug
#42490)
>> When multiple modal windows exist, the most recently created window keeps
focus and stays above all other windows until it becomes invisible, or is
returned to a normal window style, or is deleted. At that time, focus reverts
to the window that last had focus.
This explains why when you create two modal dialogs consecutively the second
is above the first.
Now, in the second case where we create a non-modal figure after a modal
dialog the figure should be created and displayed *below* the dialog. This
looks like a Matlab bug.
I think this bug depends mostly on resolving bug #42490 since if I do
dialog (); dialog ("name", "msgbox"); ## the second is a modal msgbox
I obtain the same behavior as in ML. And
dialog (); figure (); ## the second is non modal
The figure is displayed bellow as I would expect.
