Parse Tree window loses focus on grammar errors #130

When I type input into the Parse Tree's left pane, the Parse Tree window loses focus to the Console window if there's a parsing error in my input.

But unless I type very quickly, I will typically have temporary parsing errors until I finish composing my input.

I find myself entering input into a separate editor and then copying and pasting into the antlr4ide editor when I'm done.

Is this an antlr4ide issue, or is it Eclipse's console window stealing focus?

Maybe instead of automatically parsing the input after a keyboard delay, you could have a button that says Parse to perform the input parsing. That would allow the user to compose the input without having to worry about getting an error if they don't type quickly enough.

Thanks.

I also have this issue, and I also adopted the workaround of using a separate editor and then copying it in the Parse Tree Pane. A shame, because real-time feedback should make this panel even more useful.
This behavior is also mentioned in #118
