Description David 2019-08-22 16:27:41 UTC
In previous versions if I launch dolphin, open some folder, and press F4 to get a console opened in that folder within Dolhpin, it used to automatically bring the focus to the console line, but in later versions, it will keep the focus on the folder files.

I think this is unreasonable as the reason why I open the console is to use it right there, and now it’s much more inconvenient. And what’s worse, if I hide the console and show it again, even if the focus was at the console before, it will again open unfocused, and thus whatever was written but not executed will be lost.

Steps to reproduce:
- Launch Dolphin
- Open some folder
- Press F4
- Try to type in the console without clicking it
- After unsuccessful attempt on that, click the console to focus it
- Write something in there
- Press F4 (console will hide)
- Press F4 again (console will reappear)

Expected behavior: should open with focus on the console, and whatever was written there but not executed should still be there when the console reopens.

Actual behavior: when the console is opened, focus is always on the folder view, and after hiding and reopening it, the command that was being typed is lost.

Can reproduce even with recent versions.

In 19.11.70
The focus shifts to the terminal the first time f4 is pressed.

But if f4 is pressed to close it, and terminal is reopened by pressing f4, the focus remains in folder view. 

If the terminal is closed by exit (ctrl+D) and reopened using f4, focus shifts to terminal

properly, not just the first time you open them
