[Bug 774447] Re: Dash text input does not get focus

[Jorge Gustavo]

i) Today I noticed that this happens on the first time I access dash
with the Super key. After booting and after some hard work (ie reading
the email) I pressed the Super key and the dash appears, but without
focus. I also noticed that the dash didn't go way by clicking outside
it. So, I had to hit Super again to hide dash. Afterwards, it is working
as expected.

ii) I can reproduce the error. After a reboot, the dash does not get the
focus after the first attempt (using the Super key), and can not be
dismissed by clicking outside it.

Today I upgraded from unity 3.8.14-0ubuntu1~natty1 to unity
3.8.16-0ubuntu1~natty1 and the behavior is the same.

Can someone else reproduce the bug?

Title:
  Dash text input does not get focus

Status in Unity:
  Incomplete
Status in “dash” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: dash

  Found in 11.04 Natty Narwhal

  I have yet to find the exact source of this bug, but occasionally when
  hitting super to get the dash, the text entry field in dash is not
  made the active widgit.  As a result, the text I type will be entered
  into a textfield/textbox in the application I was previously using.
  Additionally, while in this state, the dash can not be closed again by
  pressing super or escape.  It can only be closed by clicking on the
  top bar.

  I'm sorry that I can not pinpoint the source, but this has happened to
  me multiple times already, so I thought fit to report it.  I will try
  to find the source and report back if I do find it.
