Dear all,
That the quote-mark gets sent through when switching windows is
quite a big issue for me. I use this key-combination all the time
in all applications, and because of this I had more than once an
(undiscovered) quote-sign in a printed publication.
If one has something marked in LyX when switching windows in the
standard mac-way, this behavior even leads to quiet DATA LOSS !!!
I tried to re-define (or better: disable) in LyX the leftquote key
using a new bindfile with e.g.
\bind_file mac.bind
\bind "quoteleft" "screen-recenter"
which works when pressing the quoteleft key, only. If I press
however Command-quoteleft (switching the windows of the foremost
application), still the quoteleft-character appears in LyX
(ignoring what is in my bindfile).
Any other possibility for a (temporary) workaround until it gets
fixed in Qt???
Two possibilities, but you're not going to like them:
1. Use the mouse to switch windows.
2. Use only a single window (with <opt><tab> and <opt><shift><tab> to
switch between tabs).
I don't know of any keyboard-based solutions.
