Summary0003755: Saving a custom parameter jumps to the next "masterserver address" textbox instead of continuing typing on the custom parameters
DescriptionIf I select a Zandronum client or server binary location, that keeps my selection on the directory search button. At least it's on the same line as what I clicked, hey.
Suppose I want to save multiple custom parameters, though: Clicking the "save" icon next to custom parameters makes the save icon disappear (replaced by "X"), so Qt thinks it has no active element. The next element in configuration is the "masterserver address" textbox, which it jumps to.
I wanted to continue typing on the custom parameters line, but instead all the text of "masterserver address" got selected and typing replaced the master server address – which I can't remember – with garbage I meant to type to the custom parameters textbox.
The end result is that I have to move my cursor, or if I mess up, "Cancel" to revert all configuration changes I may have just made. (Yeah, there's no button to click for the default master server address either.)
Steps To Reproduce
  1. Start Doomseeker.
  2. Options → Configuration (F5) → any game plugin you have installed (which supports custom parameters; e.g. Zandronum).
  3. Play around with custom parameters, as described in OP.
Additional Information0003754 for details how the custom parameters feature works.
TagsNo tags attached.

This should be fixed here, the focus should return to the custom parameters widget after save/removal:'https://bitbucket.org/Doomseeker/doomseeker/commits/51102af4f2cddd841bdc67ad3c103c21b0d0a1d9 [^]'

Since the save/remove code forcibly changes the focus back to the input widget, I can't reproduce this anymore. Marking as fixed.
