Focus problem

[sekular]

Using tc 8 beta 20 x64.

Summary. Focus of cursor jumps to incorrect panel.

How to recreate:
-Slow double click on a file until the filename is editable.
-with the filename still editable, click the opposite panel to the panel where the file resides.

What happens: The cursor jumps to the panel where the filename is being renamed.

What should happen: the cursor should remain on the panel and location of where you clicked when disabling the filename rename option.

I have the inactive cursor option enabled and i think this might be causing the problem.

I have tried it in tc 8 beta 20 32bit with default configuration and the cursor does not jump to the incorrect panel.


How this would affect use of the application.

When clicking on the file or folder to copy the folder name, slow double click, ctrl+c. click the opposite panel and press f7 to create a new folder and paste to make the folder. Unfortunately the click the opposite panel reverts the cursor back to the incorrect side and i get the prompt that the folder already exists and i have to press tab and then f7 to switch panels.

It only happens with the x64 version of TC.

Is this an already known issue? sorry if it is.

Does it happen even if the non active cursor option is not in use?

Confirmed in TC8.0 x64 beta 21 with clean ini. TC x32 not affected.

I can also confirm this glitch in Total Commander 8.0ß21 64bit. The bug is reproducible even if you edit the file name and click on the second pane. The rename process normally would cancel and jump the cursor to the second pane but it just pops back to the current one that you are using.

The 32bit version it's clean, and it works the way it should be.

Made a short little screen recording demonstrating the bug.

Sorry, there is currently nothing I can do about it. I have to set the cursor, otherwise TC would crash when the edit box is hidden. It's not easy to fix because the user may leave the edit box in many ways...

In comparison here's a demonstration of the same procedure on the 32bit version... Stock .ini files and nothing else. This is the right behavior that the 64bit version should do. As soon as you click away into the second pane the cursor stays on the that one and didn't jump back to the same one.

For comparison here are the two versions, both 32 and 64bit.

I was using the same code in 32-bit and 64-bit, and it caused a crash in 64-bit only - so I had to change it. Maybe I can find a different solution, but I cannot promise anything.

It is actually anything that you might click on while in inline edit mode - for example command line or drive combo box - the the focus is returned to the filename after a tiny delay.

I can confirm that it's fixed in n Total Commander 8.0ß22 64bit. It works just like in the 32bit version. It doesn't crash, so I think this feature it's working perfectly as expected

Thanks! Can anyone else confirm it too, please?

Confirmed. I can no longer reproduce this issue in beta 22.

Confirmed fixed in TC 8.0b22 x64
