Hi Eliot,

I am looking into it. As a workaround, please enable the preference "mouse over for keyboard focus". The selection will appear after hovering the text field.

Best,
Marcel

Hi Marcel,

    forgive me but I must ask for an urgent fizz.  I've spent a halff hour playing around and have no idea what I'm doing, hence I'm going to ask you...

If one does "debug it" then the debugger that opens doesn't show the context selection (the selection in the method text that shows where execution is).  I have tried adding #changed: contentsSelection and other hacks in various places ut so far have got no where.  Hence, please, can this be fixed?  The issue is that when one needs to do into immediately, if there's no selection my instinct is to step, which will step past the point.  I can't make myself remember to deselect and select the method to update the selection to be visible (nor should one have to).  So please...

_,,,^..^,,,_

best, Eliot
