Submitting Ratings unfocuses the book record

mklauber · 10-10-2024, 10:29 AM

As far as I can tell, uniquely among the available fields, editing the rating via keyboard and clicking "enter" results in the focus being lost. Text fields, Dates, and Int fields all result in the book's record/field receiving the focus after pressing enter, which makes it easy to navigate the library.

I'm trying to figure out where this is occurring, but I'm not familiar with developing with qt. Can someone point me in a direction where I can fix this?

Thanks

Doesnt happen for me, steps I tried:

1) Navigate to the rating field
2) press f2
3) press 4 to change the rating to 4 stars
4) press enter
5) focus remains in the book list

Works fine for me on calibre 7.19 and up-to-date Windows 10.

tried:- F2 into Rating and Tabbing into it from previous cell,
tried:- entering a digit, select via down-arrow and via drop-down.
tried:- leaving cell edit with Enter and with Tab to next cell.

Which calibre version, which OS and version.

Apologies, Calibre 7.17, linux, debian 6.1 or ubuntu 24.04. Tab and left/right arrows work for me, but enter doesn't. If not reproducible, no worries, I'll try to look at it more myself.

I tried it on Linux under both Wayland and X11 (Arch up-to-date sway compositor) and didnt reproduce.
