Bug with keyboards shortcuts after loading a design

[fulcrumusa]

I've noticed that with the latest couple of updates, keyboard shortcuts are not active after an initial load of a design until I use the GUI button and click on it with the mouse. After that, the shortcut seems to be active. I've mostly noticed this with the "Inspect/Measure" tool.

I've attached a screencast to illustrate what I am talking about. As you can see in the screencast, nothing happens after repeated presses of the "I" key. Only after I use the button on the ribbon does the "I" start working.

Actually it's been this way all along, and it happens with all shortcuts and hotkeys.

You have to click into the Fusion workspace somewhere, not necessarily use the tool.

After you open a design, click on some object in the scene: a toolbar, viewcube, the browser header, or the frame of Fusion. Then press I.

The good news is we are actually fixing this right now, so in a month or two you won't have to click things to start measuring.

No need to apologize, we appreciate all reports from all users. You did the right thing to bring it up.

Thanks again,

Hi, do you know if there's been any progress on this? It seems like a trivial detail, but the whole idea of keyboard shortcuts is to avoid the mouse and that's not possible at the moment. Just checking to make sure this hasn't been forgotten. Thanks for any info...

The project to fix focus issues is still in progress. We haven't forgotten.

Thanks,
