Delete Branch "%!s(<nil>)"
Deleting a branch is permanent. Although the deleted branch may continue to exist for a short time before it actually gets removed, it CANNOT be undone in most cases. Continue?
System Information
Operating system: Mac OS Catalina 10.15.4 (latest)
Graphics card: Intel HD 6000
Blender Version
Broken: 2.82a, 2.83 beta
Short description of error
It is ONLY testable on Mac OS when Blender.app in fullscreen mode!!! (if not in fullscreen -- everything works ok)
After you render image, and if your image covers your screen -- you get result in "Render window". And when you click "Save" or "Save as" - this "Save as" window appears BEHIND "render window". So you can't really see it before you move away "render window"
Exact steps for others to reproduce the error

I am 99% sure this can't be addressed due to the macOS policy: fullscreen apps only allow one active window.
The only way this would work would be a native safe file dialogue (not a window).
You might find a workaround editing your config to not use secondary windows when on render and file browsers.

Another manifestation but the reason is the same as in #74101:
For quick test, I just deleted the
addChildWindow
code inGHOST_WindowCocoa.mm
, and this fixed both issues.I don't know if parenting is necessary at all, but at least you can make an exception for fullscreen mode.

The issue is that macOS handles additional windows weirdly in fullscreen mode: They are placed in front of child windows of the fullscreen window.
I see two ways to address this. One is to allow the filebrowser to be attached to temporary windows (preferences, render view, driver editor). So far we only attach it to main windows. This solution would affect all platforms, but might actually be a sensible thing to do, it simplifies a few things. Also addresses #72693.
dialog_and_temp_wins.mov
Alternatively we could do a macOS-only solution of not setting the child-window relationship for fullscreen-windows, as @jenkm suggested. Note however that this would break when changing the fullscreen-state while the filebrowser is open. So a bit of extra code during fullscreen-state changes would be needed to prevent that (very doable still).
@brecht & @WilliamReynish what do you think?
Note that we should really work on a better design to handle different kinds of windows. See #69819 (Secondary Window Behaviors) and D7497: WIP: Window Creation Refactor.
Changed status from 'Needs Triage' to: 'Confirmed'
I'm fine with attaching the file browser to temporary windows, that's how I think it should work.
Changing this behavior, and doing D7497 alongside it may be better left for 2.90. Since it's hard to ensure this will not break anything, especially if it affects Windows and Linux too.
Added subscriber: @Harley
Personally I worry about D7497 unless we do that in concert with changing some dialogs, like QuitSave to using real OS windows. Otherwise that would be the next complaint, that the "QuitSave" was hidden behind some other window.
Edit: I must have been asleep when I wrote the above, because Damn, that sounds dumb in the context of this thread. I should have just written "yes, I agree with Brecht". LOL
