Fix file name field in dialog not having focus initially (838 bytes, patch)

Description Chris Wayne 2012-11-10 22:34:21 UTC 
When running gnome-screenshot from hotkeys (and likely without), the save as dialog appears, and the name of the file to be saved is highlighted. This will make the user think this text box is active, and that typing will change the file name. This is not the case, as the text box does not have focus.
Comment 1 Robin Stocker 2013-04-05 19:03:12 UTC 
Confirmed with master. Patch upcoming.

Review of attachment 240786 [details] [review]:

Looks good, but you should also set the save button as receives-default = TRUE, so that pressing Enter in the entry goes ahead and saves the file.
The entry already has activates_default = TRUE.

Hm, I tried that now, but it still does not work. Either I'm not running this thing the right way or there is another problem.
Comment 5 Cosimo Cecchi 2013-04-05 20:58:25 UTC 
Yes, there was another problem preventing keyboard activation to work properly, which I fixed now in git. I also applied your patch on top. Thanks! Closing this as FIXED.
