12.5 undesirable behavior
Posted: Sun Apr 26, 2015 5:23 pm
Hi there,
Since updating to 12.5, the focus sometimes moves from the search box to the authors box automatically. This makes it very easy to accidentally erase the authors from a reference. Not sure if this behavior existed pre-12.5, but it impacted me a few times today on two different machines.
To reproduce, search for a reference (e.g., by author) with the web view selected in the bottom pane. Once the web view finishes loading, the cursor focus changes to the authors. Hitting delete (as I do when I go to change my search criteria quickly) erases all the authors. It seems to me that better behavior would be to keep the cursor focus on the search box unless a reference's details are selected manually.
Cheers,
dave
