(Archived) Note open in fullscreen, cmd-tab to Evernote, click click...

[mrgoerend 89]

Scenario:

I have a note open in Evernote in fullscreen.

I switch (via cmd-tab) to Chrome (or any other app) to look up some information.

I cmd-tab back to Evernote and have to click twice to get my note to regain focus. When I cmd-tab over it just shows a dimmed thumbnail view, but to be able to type, I have to click click. It slows down my workflow.

Is anyone else seeing this? Anything that can be done about it?

Sounds like a bug and the focus isn't being correctly assigned when you return.

You should open a ticket so they know about and they might fix it

Done.

I'm having the same problem. Is there a solution?

 

In addition to what is mentioned above, I've found that a second pair of ⌘-tab presses will fix the focus properly. In other words: ⌘-tab to Evernote results in no focus, ⌘-tab away from Evernote, ⌘-tab back to Evernote results in focus (as in other applications on the first ⌘-tab).

Opening multiple windows in Chrome and CMD-Tabbing around seems to exhibit the same behavior, no?

I just tried that in Chrome, but no, it did not exhibit the same behavior. It worked as expected.

What version of OSX are you on?

10.8.4

 

I updated from 10.8.3 after my Aug. 3 post above. That (or something else) may have solved the problem with Evernote. It is not occurring now.
