I think this is a general difference in the way the mouse/keyboard interface works in Linux and Windows. Window managers in Linux tend to give focus to the window that contains the mouse pointer (e.g. when you use the mouse wheel to scroll it). While in Windows transferring focus to another window requires an explicit click, and in absence of that it just remembers which window had focus, no matter where you move the pointer.

On my wife's computer (Windows 7 SP1), the arrow keys allow to navigate into a game no matter where the mouse pointer is. I still haven't installed Scid 4.6.1 on my Linux machine but the behaviour is the same with 4.6.0 beta. I am not sure about previous versions.

    Hello,

    To use the arrow keys to navigate into a game, your mouse needs to
    hover the Main Window. When your mouse is elsewhere, say over the
    Gamelist, the arrows stop working.

    I think this behavior was in place in the previous versions, but
    I'm not sure. I mostly use mouse scrolls. For mouse scrolls, the
    mouse still needs to be over the Main window.

    Sorry for the inconvenience.

    B
