Focus Problems in Enlightenment 16.7 (anyone else?)


I upgraded from the ancient 0.16.5 to the most recent and stable 0.16.7.2 enlightenment. The problem is that i have some virtual desktops and when i switch between them the app on the desktop i switch to get's pointer focus but not input from the keyboard. It's driving me insane. So basically you can highlight text and click on things in the window, but you can't type. it seems the focus for the keyboard is locked to the app you came from. The only way to get it to release is to click on a different app and click back.

Does this happen to anyone else? Is it an E bug or maybe just my configs from my previously installed version?

Yep, I experience this as well. I'm not sure what the actual cause of it is but I do know some apps will "take" the focus away, even though they are not in the foreground.

Peace...
