Window focus problems

Post by Debvgger »

I'm experiencing trouble with both Codelite 5.2 and 5.3 in Windows 7 x64.

What happens is that Codelite fights for window focus even with itself. For example, I try to search a word on a source file. I start to type in the search box, and one second after that, the code window gets the focus and my strokes get directed there modifying the source. When this happens I have to undo then try again, sometimes two and three times, and after some hours of work it's a bit cumbersome... A friend of mine with the same configuration and version experiences this bug too, even when the focus is on other programs: He's typing on a putty console and suddenly Codelite gets the focus and he ends screwing his source code.

Any tips about this? Should I fill a bug report? I tried searching in the bug list but found none similar to this.
