"Enter" in Events minimizes window
on: February 15, 2021, 12:53:11 am
I've just downloaded the 14 Feb 2021 nightly build and noticed that pressing "Enter" in the Events window doesn't confirm the string data (message names, event naming, manually typing SEXPs, etc) I just entered, but closes (minimizes) the window instead. The last nightly I used previously was a Dec 2020 nightly and it worked the way I've accustomed to since vanilla.

I've always used "Enter" a lot while making events, and looks like I'll have to get used to this new system.

Is this intentional? If yes, what's the justification behind this?

The fix is in a PR already.  Just wanted more than one pair of eyes to look at it before merging.

Okay, so it's there for a reason, but what does it "fix"? It must be quite a thing if you folks decided to override a no-brainer behavior like this that hasn't bothered someone who has FREDded since vanilla came out.

I think you misunderstand, this change was unintentional, and a PR which reverts it to its previous behavior is in the pipe.

I also find this really a pain in the butt because it's such a reflex-style action. Thanks for remedying this.

No worries. Mistakes happen and it's no big deal.
