[Github-comments] [geany/geany] F8 unbound but still doing something? (#2359)

[tristenator]

i have unbound F8 however when i press F8 it causes the cursor in the editor window to lose focus and the cursor disappears, ie: something is still happening despite being unbound.

therefore when i subsequently try to use F8 for a custom macro i find the macro still executes but then the focus is lost and i have to click the editor window again. i thought i'd try and "trick" the focus back to the editor window by adding an F2 to the end of the macro but it was to no avail...

after pressing the unbound F8 i can press TAB 7 times and see focus return back to the editor window.

also i've found after pressing the unbound F8 i can press ENTER or SPACE or ESC and focus returns to the editor window.

hth, also btw i tried pressing F8 in other random applications (browsers, other editors, etc.) just to see if i somehow had a global F8 shortcut key defined, but nothing happens when i press F8 elsewhere...
