Big Sur: keyboard navigation not working
Under macOS Big Sure (11.0.1), Clipy no longer seems to respond to any keys, like Up / Down or pressing numbers. It's as if it didn't have focus or something. (Clipy's popup still comes up but inside it, my keys seem to be ignored.)
This impacts the UX quite heavily, unfortunately. I'm using the latest 1.2.9.beta13 version.
I'm not sure where is the problem. It works fine on mine machine and it is Big Sur 11.0.1
It is quite strange. This is what happens to me:
- Click the menu bar icon, press Up and Down keys – everything works. ✅
- Define a keyboard shortcut for the Option-Cmd-V (see below).
- Press this shortcut to get the Clipy popup, press Up and Down keys – it doesn't work. ❌
- Now do exactly the same as step 1, i.e., click the menu bar icon and press Up and Down keys – it doesn't work. ❌
Especially the fourth step is strange. As if the focus was somehow destroyed by my keyboard shortcut (I also tried Shift-Ctrl-Cmd-Option-V and it behaved the same).
OK, I reproduced that issue. And after your restart Clipy., it works well. And I will find out the root cause and fix it soon. Thanks for your report. @borekb
