More places where Escape does not do what you expect (and other keyboard issues)

[Matt_Blais]

• In entity view, when editing “Show/Hide Fields”, typing allows you to filter the list of fields.
• Hitting Esc should close this popup, but instead the entire Panel is closed.

---

Another one:

• Entity View
• Configure Fields
• Edit an existing Button
• Update the Button Name
• Hit Enter to accept changes
• Esc now does nothing (I was expecting it to close the “Configure Fields” popup)

Another one:

• DB setup screen
• Click the DB icon to select icon & color of DB
• Esc does nothing, regardless of where the focus is (I was expecting it to close the popup or cancel the icon search)
  
  

Another:

• From just about anywhere, hitting Esc to bring up global Search:
• Now the keyboard focus is nowhere – hitting Esc again will cancel the search, but you can’t type anything else
• When you use Ctrl+K instead of Esc to bring up global Search, the keyboard focus is in the search box where you expect it

Another:

• Rich Text
• Type << to create an embedded view
• After you click the “What” button, Esc will no longer cancel the popup
  

Another:

• Rich Text
• Select some text and hit Ctrl+K to make it a link
• Hit Esc to close the link popup
• The Global Search menu comes up
• I expected the Link popup to close

Keyboard focus is nowhere:

I guess I will add other keyboard issues here, instead of creating dozens of new posts:

• In a table/grid/etc view that displays a Rich Text field
• Clicking a RT field’s icon opens the Rich Text in a panel to the right for editing
• but the keyboard focus is nowhere so you have to use the mouse before you can actually start editing
• It would make sense if the keyboard focus was in the just-opened Rich Text

Ctrl+E doesn’t always work in Rich Text

• Select text then hit Ctrl+E to create an entity
• If your selection includes some fields (e.g. an @mention) then Ctrl+E opens the browser search bar instead (Chrome on Windows)

Rich Text: Weird Ctrl+cursor behaviour around fields

• If a word is followed by a field (e.g. @mention) and your cursor is at the beginning of the word, you would expect Ctrl+Right cursor to move the cursor to the beginning of the field that follows the word…
• But instead it moves to the end of the field (which would be expected from hitting Ctrl+Right twice)

Rich Text: Esc does not close popup

• After using Ctrl+E to open the “Inline Create Entity” popup, Esc does not close the popup (must reach for the mouse again )

After editing entity name in entity view, Esc does not close panel

• You must first click somewhere else in the panel before Esc will close the panel
• The same is true after editing some (not all) fields in entity view (e.g. numeric and text fields), or after hiding a field, etc.

Inbox: Esc does nothing

Immediately after opening Inbox, Esc will close it (as expected). But after you click anything in Inbox (e.g. Actions menu), Esc no longer does anything.
I expected it to 1) close the Actions menu, 2) Close Inbox.

E.g., after selecting Actions | Move All to Done, Esc does nothing; I expected it to close the Inbox, which it will do only if I first click on the Inbox pane.

View Renaming: Esc opens global search

When typing the name of a view, Esc does not cancel/end the renaming - instead it opens global search.
