esc should deselect the focus of an input field


Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

the following situation:

 

for example I want to change the width of an object.

 

I click into the input field ... within the "transformation panel" ... hit return - the focus stays on that input field which is NICE in case of using tab to switch to other input fields. BUT:

 

when hitting the "Esc" button I would like make sure to release the focus of that input field so that I can go on in my work with AD. Now it leads to confusing situations like: if I want to go on with another tool like Zoom (Z), or Text (T) ... the still focused input field leads: 1) to entering the input field, 2) setting the value to "0" and the cursor is blinking.

 

I have to click "Esc" again and the desired tool as well.

 

Improving the current behavior would, at least in my case, lead to less confusion and saving mouse clicks >> increasing efficiency.

 

 

Thanks for thinking about it,

Stefan.
