LMMS steals focus when loading

[Spekular]

Not sure of the proper wording for this. If another window is in focus while LMMS loads, LMMS will regain focus whenever a new part of loading completes. I believe this is undesirable.

Tested on Windows 10 with 1.2.0-rc2

Confirming for rc3 x32 Its quite amusing, because i was actually getting aware of this 'problem' yesterday. RC3 loads projects quite slow on my 2 cpu 10y old pc, so i wanted to check mail. Lmms broke in every time a VST was 'successfully loaded'. 🤡 Buuu..t i would hardly call this a bug, most with good hw wont be bothered at all imo: can wait to 1.2.x

I'd say it's bad either way. I have projects slow enough (especially with VSTs) to want to do something else, and that's with an i5-4590 and projects

wooo... ok, thats surprises me, other have talked about benchmarks around 5-10 secd, for even large project, like unfa spoken Was better in 1.0..

Does it go away if you comment out the call to show() and replace it with:

if (!pd->isVisible()) { pd->show(); }

It seems like QWidget::show activates the target window unless WA_ShowWithoutActivating is set.

And also QWidget::setVisibility(true)...
