By Focus, I mean the chat window selected and the text field in focus, so I can type new messages. The following happens when using tabbed view for chat window. Focus is not given to chat window sometimes when I close a tab (chat with another person) or open a new tab (usually from krunner). I have to click on the chat window in order to restore focus, so I can type a new message. Reproducible: Sometimes Steps to Reproduce: 1. start a chat with another person OR 1. Close a current chat (tab) Actual Results: Focus, sometimes is not given to the typing area, thus, you cannot type a new message. Expected Results: Focus always to be given to the typing area. I have not tested this without the tabbed view, but I will if necessary.
Confirming this. Using packages from git master Using tabbed view Opening a new window from contact list gives focus to window but not to the text area. If no interaction is done with text-ui, opening successive tabs also does not give focus to the text area. However, once the focus is set in any of tab, subsequent new tabs gives the focus to the text field properly.
