1251 Navigation bar included in TAB sequence [#5774]

Post by chrisjj »

1 Ensure View | Toolbars | Navigation is ticked
2 Click in search bar
3 Press TAB

Expected: focus moves to e.g. Tree, Track List or anywhere useful
Observed: focus disappears

I'd guess the focus has moved to the Navigation bar, despite that this bar does not display the focus and has no usefully focus-operated controls.

It switches to Now Playing in the Explorer Tree for me with the Navigation toolbar enabled.

For me it tabs between the Tree, Searchbar, Tracklist, NP list (skipping NP if it's undocked ;-) ).

I confirm that. However, I have one not too much related question about keyboard focus. If I have opened some dockable panel made by some script which have only one Web Browser control, those panels have their tabs stop, i.e. each panel requires one more tab press. It is OK if we could use keyboard with such panels, but those panels are not responding to any key (Up/Down arrows, PgUp, PgDn...) Example of scripts which have such panels are MonkeyRok, Lyrics Viewer, my Event Logger... Why MM doesn't transfer keyboard focus to the Web Browser control if it is contained in some dockable panel (or dialog box as well, which I mentioned before, but without any response)?

Well, having switched to 1252, I find the stated steps are insufficient to reproduce.

Good luck Jiri :)

Are you sure that you didn't have any dockable panel opened? As I said, those panels made by scripts like MonkeyRok are also included in Tab sequence.

I am not . I probably had Now Playing opened (floating or docked).

I definitely had no add-on script panel becasue for testing I have no addon scripts.

Thanks for the suggestion.

Fixed in build 1255. Let me know if it works for you since I could never repro.

See: http://www.ventismedia.com/mantis/view.php?id=5774

Thanks.

I don't see the issue in 1255 - thanks - but since it went hazy in the previous version, I'll keep my eyes peeled for recurrence.
