Open/Save dialog keyboard focus - Is this a bug?
Submitted by 2gooder on Wednesday, 23 August, 2006 - 17:22
Hey guys. I've been using jEdit for a few years and I alway use the latest development version. As of version 4.3pre5 I've noticed that when I open a Save or Open dialog (Crtl-S or Ctrl-O) the keyboard focus is no longer in the "File name:" text box.

The result of this is that I can no longer begin typing a name of a file when the dialog open. Instead I have to move to the mouse and click on the file name text box. It really slows me down when I am creating or opening lots of files.

Should I file this as a bug, or is this a new "feature"?

Thanks a lot,
Simon

Focus not on filename in Open/Save dialog

I just confirmed this (jEdit 4.3pre6 using Java 1.5.0_08).

I think it's a bug.
