Description Nicolás Alvarez 2011-03-06 07:33:26 UTC 
*Sometimes*, pressing Esc to dismiss the search box gives an "ambiguous shortcut" message. Today I figured out the exact circumstances that make it fail:

- open the search box (Ctrl-F)
- switch to another channel tab
- switch back to the channel with the search box open
- make sure the search input field is *not* focused (for me, it never is after a channel tab switch, but just in case)
- press Esc to close the search box

An "ambiguous shortcut" popup appears. Focusing the search input box first makes Esc work as expected. Manually focusing the IRC inputline without switching channel tabs also works; switching tabs is important to make it fail.

This is related to bug 257298.

While investigating this right now, the whole thing is actually more broken than just that - after the search bar has been opened, the Esc-to-focus-input box generally stops working, unless a view switch occurs which reenables the action (which is also the cause of the ambiguity).

Pushed by hein into branch 'master'.

Fix interaction between the search bar close shortcut and Focus Input Box.

Relevant only with the default shortcut for Focus Input Box, which is
ESC. Within a given tab Focus Input Box would stop working after the
search bar had been opened, and after switching tabs forth-and-back there
would be an ambiguous shortcut dialog box on triggering Focus Input Box
when the search bar was open in the first tab.
