Bug - Inconsistent Space Bar Scrolling

Clinton Thomas

When I first click in a bible window to make it active and then hit the spacebar, the window scrolls by a page at a time.

If I then click on the next/previous arrow, which I have set to "verse", any spacebar presses after that, cause the window to scroll by a verse. (Note: if the setting is to book, then the spacebar scrolls a book at a time, similarly for chapter and article)

If I then click outside the bible pane so it looses focus, then click back on the window, the space bar has reverted to scrolling by a page at a time again.

I think the space bar should always default to one or the other, or there should be some indication what the action of the spacebar currently is.

That's because the focus remains on the next/previous arrow when you click on it, so pressing the spacebar executes that command again. The problem is, Logos is not showing the focus dotted rectangle, so there's no visual cue that your keystrokes will go somewhere other than to the panel window.

However, if you Alt+Tab away from Logos and then back again, you will see the dotted rectangle marking the focus:

I reported a similar problem in this thread: http://community.logos.com/forums/t/16449.aspx

The two problems might be related.
