[duplicate|fixed]keyboard focus lost forever if ALT-tabing during transform operation - yoann - 04-13-2017

Hi,

With 2.1.5 x64 under Windows 8.1.

Description :

If, while you are rescaling a mesh, you ALT-tab to an other window (like to a Calc.exe for instance), when you ALT-tab back to Wings3D, the rescaling operation is interrupted and Wings3D does not react to keyboard inputs anymore, and Wings3D can't regain keyboard focus.


How to reproduce :

- open any window or calc.exe and leave it in the background
- open Wings3D
- right click to create a Cube
- click the change to Body Selection button
- click to select the Cube
- right click to Scale Axis / X
- move the mouse to start rescaling (but dont validate yet)
- press ALT-tab to switch to the background window
- press ALT-tab again to switch back to Wings3D
- press TAB key to enter a value manually or press SPACE : keyboard input forcus is lost

Thanks for report it, but I already reported it here: [fixed] Hotkeys stop works if we switch between applications

There is a "workaround" there. The fix will be applied to the next release.
