[switch-views:] Editor is not in focus neither with the shortcut "Toggle sidebar 1" nor with the shortcut "Toggle sidebar 2"

[ralf3u]

Steps to reproduce

1. only editor is visible
2. press shortcut "Toggle sidebar 1" nor "Toggle sidebar 2" of switch-views to see editor&sidebar
3. press shortcut "Toggle editor 1" to see only the sidebar
4. click inside the content-area of the preview-tab to put there the focus
5. press shortcut "Toggle sidebar 1" or "Toggle sidebar 2" of switch-views to see only the editor

Result
The editor is not in focus.

Expectation
The editor should be in focus.

I think this is probably related to geany-plugins PR 1234, which fixes a bug in geanylua in the activate function. May (or may not) be helpful to leave a short comment there saying that you're affected by the bug.

I think this is probably related to geany-plugins PR 1234, [...]

I don't think so, because with the shortcut switch-views-(editor-↔-sidebar).lua the editor is in focus how it should be. I think that geany-plugins PR 1234 is among others about the focus issue of the content-area of the prebiew-tab.

Just compare the following example with the report of this issue:

Steps to reproduce

1. only editor is visible
2. press shortcut switch-views-(editor-↔-sidebar).lua of switch-views to see only the sidebar
3. do nothing (it is just to have the same numbers like in the report)
4. click inside the content-area of the preview-tab to put there the focus
5. press again the shortcut switch-views-(editor-↔-sidebar).lua of switch-views to see only the editor

Result
The editor is in focus.

So, if "set focus back to the editor" works in the shortcut switch-views-(editor-↔-sidebar).lua, it should also work for the shortcut Toggle sidebar 1 .

The same applies for #14.

I found the mistake. In the document toggle-sidebar-1.lua I added at the end:

editor_focus()

I saved the document, and then I restarted Geany. Now this issue is fixed.

Could you please correct switch-views?

Please leave me a message when switch-views is corrected, so I will close this issue.

Before to change switch-views, could you please check if my solution of my last comment is correct?
