Keyboard and mouse functionality lost
« on: April 24, 2009, 07:58:56 pm »

strange bug:

sometimes, when i am in standard view, i lose the ability to use CTRL+4 to go to theater view. in fact, i lose a lot of keyboard/mouse functionality.

i can single click and select files just fine, even double click and start playing a file.

however, i can't get access the menus at the top by clicking them (file, edit, view, player, etc) and the CTRL+# functions to switch views don't work. it seems to be random and sometimes the functionality returns.

not really sure what is causing this

I doubt it's an MC bug.
