Bug ID: 53305 Summary: SketchUp 2017: Keyboard entry doesn't work correctly after reinstall. Product: Wine Version: 7.0-rc6 Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: minor Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs@winehq.org Reporter: HeartwoodJack@gmail.com Distribution: ---
SketchUp 2017 stopped working so I reinstalled. Now it works again, very nicely* but keyboard entry doesn't work correctly. I thought that it was just the [Esc] key (to cancel an operation) but numerical entry (to set dimensions etc) don't work. Keyboard shortcuts continue to work.
Exploring the behaviour, it seems that if I move or resize the SketchUp window, then the keys work until after an operation. This doesn't apply to internal windows like toolbars or attributes like 'Materials'. It feels like the cursor click on the drawing space steals focus from the part of the program that listens for data or cancellation. Nevertheless, mid-operation, you can still cancel it by selecting a new operation (using a tool shortcut like [M] or [B]) so it isn't deaf to the keyboard input all together.
Any ideas?
* Works nicely, although this needs to be open in the background, as usual and without effect: Bug 50775 - Sketchup Make 2017 displays error message about sketchup_webhelper.exe
