Hi all,
TC 10.00 x64, Win10 20H2 x64.
Activate Quick view. Enter an archive. Focus any file [EDIT: using the keyboard arrows] and quickly press F3 to open Lister.
Lister opens but TC steals the focus half a second later when Quick view loads the file's contents.
Expected - Lister stays the active window.
Thanks
Roman

Quick view steals focus from Lister when in an archive
Mal angenommen, du drückst Strg+F, wählst die FTP-Verbindung (mit gespeichertem Passwort), klickst aber nicht auf Verbinden, sondern fällst tot um.
Re: Quick view steals focus from Lister when in an archive
Hmm, If I focus the file with the keyboard and press F3, I can confirm your finding.
But if I focus the file with the mouse, then it is Lister that becomes active and the Quick view panel is not updated until TC regains focus.

petermad,
Indeed, it seems when using the mouse the loading is not delayed. Edited my initial post, thank you.
BTW: I am using SingleClickStart=1.

Re: Quick view steals focus from Lister when in an archive
This happens because many lister plugins steal the focus from the file list on Ctrl+Q, so TC actively sets the focus back to the active file list after loading the file with Ctrl+Q. This is intentional and will not be changed, sorry. Just wait with F3 until Ctrl+Q has loaded the file.Activate Quick view. Enter an archive. Focus any file [EDIT: using the keyboard arrows] and quickly press F3 to open Lister.

Christian,
Oh, I understand. Is it then not possible to set the focus back without activating the TC window? If I switch to some other program instead of Lister then I hear a "ding" but TC isn't activated. It only happens with Lister.

No, unfortunately calling SetFocus also activates the window.
