[JW Lua] FCUI::ActivateDocumentWindow() -> Activate plugin window missing

[Jari Williamsson]

Jan,

It seems like you need __FCUserWindow::Activate() hooked up in JW Lua 
scripts. All add that.

However, I think I'll also add an automatic refocus to the Finale 
selection dialog calls (as in your video), so you don't have to add that 
line of code on every such instance. The Cocoa version of Finale has 
severe issues with these kind of things (from a user standpoint), so 
it's nice to have it automatically working in the scripts without 
additional coding.


Best regards,

Jari Williamsson
