[Bug] Keyboard shortcuts don't work on Visualisation panel #302

Open fourteen-1 opened 1 month ago

Custom hotkeys are not working when the visualisation panel is active. you have to manually "select" (click on) the bottom bar or the side panels to essentially tab out of the visualisation panel for the keyboard shortcuts to work again. Please fix this.

Unfortunately I don't believe there's any way to realistically fix this. The visualization panel is, despite running in foobar through a dll, essentially its own process embedded into the skin and will take the priority of inputs when selected. This is why you have to click on a panel outside of it for the shortcuts to work, but any global shortcuts will still work.

This is likely an intended feature of the panel and not a bug as it has its own associated shortcut keys. You could maybe create a transparent panel on top of it, but this would prevent the shortcuts for controlling milkdrop from working.
