VLC 4: Keyboard input confusion between dialogs and main window
Sometimes keyboard inputs intended for a dialog that has focus actually affects the main interface too. One easy to reproduce case for this I found is when selecting items in the Music Track list to add them to a playlist.
Steps to reproduce:
- Switch to Muisc → Tracks
- Select a few tracks
- Right click on the selection
- Select Add to playlist
- Enter text in the New Playlist field
- Hit enter (do not click OK)
Expected result
The dialog closes and a new playlist is created and the selected tracks are added to that playlist.
Actual result
Dialog closes, a new playlist is created, the selected tracks are added to it but in addition the main interface interprets the enter key press. It proceeds therefore to add the tracks to the playqeue and starts playing them.
