Clicks in launcher icons don't give focus if nemo's type-ahead input box is active #161

Open php4fan opened 4 years ago

php4fan commented 4 years ago

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Open a folder in Nemo
  2. Start typing a file name
  3. Click on an icon in the Launcher, or Panel, or whatever the thing at the bottom of the screen is called.

Expected behavior: Obviously, clicking on the Launcher/Panel icon should launch the application if it is not already open, or give focus to it if open. In other words, the click on the icon should WORK

Observed behavior: Nothing. The system doesn't respond to the click. As if the mouse was broken

I thought icons were randomly failing to respond to clicks for no apparent reason, it took me a while to realize this is caused by the type-ahead text box.
