How can i stop Eclipse's “Servers” tab from grabbing focus when start/stopping a server?

Question

When using Eclipse IDE, anytime the server (tomcat in my case) changes status (start, starting, stopping, stopped, etc...), the Servers tab becomes active. This is annoying

Answer 1

To prevent this, deselect these options:

"Show console when standard output changes"

and

"Show console when standard error changes"

Then the console will not take focus.

But what I advise is to use the simple short cuts for navigation:

Press F12 to return to Editor. 

Press Alt+Shift+Q, P  - to return to the package editor 
Press Alt+Shift+Q, O  - to outline
Press Alt+Shift+Q, S  - to search
Press Alt+Shift+Q, C  - to console
Press Alt+Shift+Q, Q  - to show all views and choose correct 

Press Ctrl+F7 - display a list of opened views
Press Ctrl+F8 - select perspective

Answer 2

Preferences -> Rund/Debug -> Console:

Disable "Show console when standard output changes"

Answer 3

You can disable the focus grabbing in Preferences - Server. There is a single Checkbox "Show Servers view when server state changes".

Also:

Preferences -> Rund/Debug -> Console: Disable "Show console when standard output changes"
