[jab] Camel Audio Alchemy Grabs Focus from Computer KB RC2

Hi

Not sure if this is one for you or Camel Audio

Alchemy v1.08 grabs focus away from computer keyboard when used as an input source.

If I touch any parameter on Alchemy the keyboard entry for notes loses focus, the only way to play further notes is to touch the track header Alchemy is loaded on (and round and round you go)

This is reproducible for both vst and AU version, this makes it impossible to edit Alchemy live whilst triggering.

I don't have this problem with other VI's.This behaviour is not a problem with Live 7.14

Thanks for looking into...I'll get in touch with CA if its not on your end.

MBP Intel Core Duo 2.2
Tiger 10.4.11
Live 8 RC2

This happens with lots of plug-ins. You should be able to regain keyboard focus by clicking anywhere in the live window, not just the track header. This bug is reported here already if you browse around.

please refer to the following thread for this problem:

It is much easier for us to manage the topic if all of
the discussion is going on over there.

Thanks,
