quickfilter loses focus after clicking a QF tab

[theovanoostenbrugge]

Hi,

When i jump to a folder via a tab and click in the (always open) quick filter on Thunderbird, the focus in quickfilter is disappeared. I must click twice in quickfilter.

When i open a folder normaly the quickfilter works fine.

It could be a setTimeout() implementation (with the delay being there for a reason), can you check whether it happens if you wait for approx 1.5 seconds and then click?

I will out of office for 2 days and can test this and check the source code over the weekend.

Yes, when I wait for 1,5sec it works fine.

Great then i can make the delay configurable so you can tweak it for your own needs.

[theovanoostenbrugge]

That will be great!

I am out of office but will be back tomorrow, then i can build you a test version.

I had the delay (1000ms) in my function setFocusThreadPane() - I decided to make it 0 for selecting folders via tab and leave it as is when it is called from the findFolder() routine (I think the delay is still there for a reason)

to install the test version, download the zip file and then drag the file into Thunderbird Add-ons Manager (do not extract contents).

it seems like it has been resolved. Thank you!
