Bug #50711 Put focus on text area when switching tabs

Description:
When swapping tabs, or when creating a new query tab, the focus is not placed on the text box, so you can't begin typing right away. You have to click on the text area or press tab before you can begin typing.

How to repeat:
create a new tab and swap between them. Focus is on "SQL Statements" expand/collapse widget instead of the text area.

Suggested fix:
Put the focus on the text area when switching tabs.

When opening a new tab in WB 5.2.15 on Windows with Ctrl+T I've got a dialog box with the following message:

"OverviewBE::get_node: invalid node 0.3.2"

So, we may have some bug here, not just a feature request.

Problem with focus is repeatable on Ubuntu 8.04. Looks like Linux-specific bug.

Fixed in Mac and Linux

fix confirmed in repository

An entry has been added to the 5.2.20 changelog:

In the SQL Editor, when a new tab was created, the focus was on the Object Explorer, rather than in the SQL Statements area. This meant that the user had to press the Tab key, or click within the SQL Statements area before they could start typing SQL code.
