Problems using keyboard shortcuts
I have been using C1 in full screen mode lately and noticed that if I place the cursor in one of the adjustment numeric fields to control the adjustment (or example, instead of using the slider for rotating an image, I place the cursor in the numeric field box for rotating and then use the up and down arrows, along with the Shift, to control the adjustment) there is no way to remove the cursor from the numeric field. Once the cursor is in the field my attempts to use keyboard shortcuts no longer work since C1 assumes I am still inputting data to the numeric field.
For example, once in this state if I try to use the numeric 1 key to set the star rating for the image to one star, it instead just inserts the value in the numeric field. If I try to crop the image using the 'c' shortcut, it does not work. If I manually change to the crop tool using the Toolbar tool, then 'h' no longer changes the cursor to the hand tool.
I assume there must be some way to remove the cursor from residing in the numeric field, but I don't know what it is. I do know that I can switch to another tool tab (for example, local adjustments) and then the keyboard shortcuts will work again, but I think there must be a simpler way to do that. Can anyone help me?
Thank you.

No. That is the first thing I tried. 😊
Clicking on the image does not remove the cursor from the input text box.0 -

That is odd. I know I tried that when trying to figure out a way out of this state, and it did not work. However, today, when I tried it again, it did work.
Perhaps I did not press the key hard enough the first time I tried it. Thanks for the suggestion.0
