Keyboard focus in plugins

[andyc]

Hi, I've been having issues recently with keyboard focus when trying to enter text in vst3 plugins (e.g. entering a numeric value for an eq band or the name of a group, etc.). For a few plugins this works without issue (I think including all stock plugins). However, for many plugins, trying to enter a number or text will run the associated keyboard shortcut (e.g. changes editing tool selection).

I wondered if anyone else had encountered that or if it was a known issue?

I'm running latest version of Studio Pro on Windows 11.

Thanks, Andy

Welcome to the forum, Andy.

Is the problem with any particular plugin? Can you give us some idea of how we might try to reproduce the problem, assuming that we have the plugin?

Thanks Stuart!

I'm having difficulty recreating this issue in a blank session so I wonder if there's a combination of 3rd party plugins in my current session that's causing this. If I find what combination of plugins or event causes this to happen again then I'll write back. Thanks again.
