[Bug 1294111] Re: "Escape Item" needs focus on the live controller verse list

 

Would be nice if this coule be looked at with greater than low priority,
it's a pretty confusing bug if you are not aware of it's cause...

To expand on the above, you can reproduce the issue by configuring
OpenLP to bypass X11 windows manager in the settings.  With that done
add one song to the service, press enter to have it display on the
second desktop, press ESC to quit that song, select the song again and
press enter to have it display again, now you are unable press ESC to
exit the song although pressing 'D' to display the desktop still works.
With bypass X11 windows manager disabled you are always able to exit the
song with ESC.

You will notice there is a difference in behaviour the second time you
press enter to display the song on the second desktop.  The first time,
focus passes to the live verse list, the second time it does not and for
this reason you cannot escape out of the song.

Note also that as X11 is being bypassed switching to desktop using 'D' is not an acceptable solution as this causes other windows to render incorrectly due to X11 still being bypassed.
a
Essentially 'Escape Item' needs to be configured to work all of the time, not just when the live verse list has the focus.

Title:
  "Escape Item" needs focus on the live controller verse list

Bug description:

  Pressing esc hides the main display. However this only happens when
  the focus is on the live controller's verse list.

  Looking in the "Configure Shortcuts" dialog I found esc is mapped to
  the "Escape Item" action.
