Set cursor to input box on channel change or focus #27

Closed ohlookemus closed 8 years ago

ohlookemus commented 8 years ago

Most chat applications on channel change or focus will set the cursor location to input area so that a user can begin typing immediately. Right now there is the minor inconvenience of swapping a channel, then clicking the input box to begin typing. Also could maybe allow tab index to be set to input box instead of other channels?

Does it happen in a browser too? That may be a Mattermost, not Matterfront, issue.

Happens in browser yea. Curious if there was a way to specify it to not do it specifically in the matterfront app. Similar to the recent webview.focus() PR. If it's not possible then it's not a big deal.

Closing as 1.2 of MM addresses this.
