I personnally noticed when setting the size of to be exported JPEG that : - i was not able to enter the size if the mouse was not on the export module frame.
So it seams that effect of keyboard inputs is mouse focus dependant. But I don't know if it is the expected behaviour. Have you tried to type in your fields with and without the mouse on the field/module frame ? (I bet that in the name of your son's friends, there are some "r" and that your mouse was focused on light-table when you typed the names) regards, Thomas On 22 November 2016 at 21:42, Jean-Luc CECCOLI <jean-luc.cecc...@wanadoo.fr> wrote: > I think the TAB key problem is not the most important, but I am going to > dig deeper to see if I can find something that can help. > > It just doesn't work the way it ought to : toggle from full screen back to > normal view (which, in my case, is all panels visible).
