Hotkeys are being activated when typing text

@36437080,

When I update, I always test by resetting preferences, clearing the cache, and creating a new project. And under those conditions on Win 10, 24.3.0 is behaving correctly for me.

But I tested further by opening in 24.3.0 a project saved in 24.2.1. I showed the effect of the bug until I used Annika's workaround from the thread @Bing#78 linked to:

• If you enter any kind of Direct Manipulation before editing the text, it should work again. For example, click on "Motion" or "Vector Motion" in the Effect Controls panel. Then text editing works.

Then it behaved correctly, and I could not trigger the bug as would happen in 24.2.1.

Does that get it working for you?

> activating my hotkeys

The bug did act like that - that happened because as soon as you would click in the text, it would deselect it, and you were no longer in edit mode - so any keystrokes were activating assigned shortcuts.

Also, the previous bug occurred after doing something like deleting a mask in effect controls.

> if you type in the text panel it will not activate any hotkeys

That was one of the workarounds.

@Bing#78,

Does that work for you? Do you see the issue in a project created in 24.3.0?

It happened to me too. They said they fixed it at 24.3.0. However the bug is still there even I already use the latest released version 24.3.0(Build 59).
