Hi,
I used to be able to click in the filter box and type the name of a server and then hit "enter" to connect, now I click in the box and it immediately loses focus, does anyone else experience this? I am running Remote Desktop Manager 10.1.8.0.
Thanks
Anthony
Hi,
I can't reproduce it. Could you post a print screen? Perhaps you have a different UI than mine?
David Hervieux
Hi David,
I am unsure what you mean, please help me understand what it is that you need that may help you understand this issue. I fear a screenshot would only show you a point in time picture of my screen whereas the problem is when I click in the bottom left filter box the focus is there for maybe a second then moves to the RDP session I currently have active.
Regards
Anthony
Here is a video of the issue, I only click once in this video and that is on the filter box.

did you try to reset layout? it sometimes solves a lot of problems.
you will find it in Window -> Reset Layout
after this close an open RDM again and try again

Hi Markus,
Thank you for the suggestion, I hadn't tried that. I just reset my layout and unfortunately it didn't fix the issue.

hm, thats bad,
i too cant reproduce in rdm 10.1.8, it is working.
maybe try to uninstall rdm, manually delete %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Devolutions and reinstall
(dont know which db-type you use, but if local-db do an export before uninstall)
if it occours after fresh install it's maybe not rdm-related.

Hi,
I think I know what it could be. Could you disable this settings in File->Options
Focus content on application activate

That was it! Thank you David!
Hi,
I've made a fix for that and RDM will no longer try to focus the tab content when the filter or the quick connect is selected.

David Hervieux
Thanks David. One other thing I noticed is that when I hit enter after typing in a servername it doesn't automatically connect to that server, I need to double click on the name.
Hi,
This is strange, I can't reproduce it. It works fine for me. Do you use the arrows to select a specific server?
David Hervieux
Hi David, no, I type in the server name or enough to make it unique and then hit the "enter" key, nothing happens.
Could you you send me a print screen of your layout? You can sent it as a private message. I want to see if have a different layout than me and also verify where the focus is.

Hi David, I have PM'd you a screenshot
