Selecting tab should focus and capture input

When switching between tabs (tested with SSH sessions), the session is not automatically focused. This results in any key strokes not being captured and causing RDM shortcuts to be triggered instead. It would be great if clicking the tab bar could focus the session and direct input into the session

Hi Ryan,

Indeed, at the moment, the session must receive a click to get the focus. I will add this to our TODO. We will post back when the improvement is made.

An option (Auto focus tab content on select) has been added to RDM 2020.3.0.0. The version will be available on October 20.

Here's where the option will be found:

Hi Ryan,

The official release of RDM 2020.3 has been pushed back for coordination between our products. That being said, the version (2020.3.0.0) that was scheduled to release on October 20 will still be released, but as a beta. To download beta versions of RDM Mac, you need to choose "All updates including beta" in the RDM Preferences:

Alternatively, you will have to wait a few days (1-2 weeks) before the official release.

Best regards,

Xavier Fortin
