I've added the attachment. It is the one at the far left of the panel to open application using a menu ...

Can reproduce. The issue here is that the search field doesn't have the conditional logic to only activate on show when not using touch that Kickoff has. I guess we forgot to do this one. I'll do it.

Or no, it does have the right code, but it's just not working as intended.

Hello! what is the progress on this? Im reluctant to open a separate issue as i think it will be marked as a duplicate but this bug is not limited to the application launcher (this is most prominent in the application menu applet) but pretty much every application with a field to type on. Maliit automatically opens which is an annoyance in my opinion as it does not act as intended like in, for example, android/ios. Should i report this as a separate bug?
