Short Cuts moving into Text fields.

Hello,

I seem to be having a problem with using the keyboard shortcuts. When I tap C or V (or any shortcut) to change between Crop and Select, the white balance text field or crop dimension field is somehow open. I then get a C or V in the field.... It is driving me insane! I have had the rename field 'open' while shooting tethered and it resulted in files titled ccccccccc. Is this a bug? Using 5.0.2. Only started having this problem after 5.0.1.

I always delete C1 before re installing... using that wonderful script put up by another user (sorry I forgotten his name)

Thanks in advance.

  I am familiar with this behavior. My way of working (and understanding) is that all keyboard shortcuts without key modifier (Shift, Cmd, Cntrl, Option) can be both field input or cursor tool selector.
  The only way I can make a character like C(rop) or R(otate) be understood as cursor tool selector, is when the I first click a thumbnail (the thumbnail has the focus in the program). This is not visible however. Note that some cursor tool selections work with Shift as well, like Sh-R (selecting the next rotation tool).

  Thanks Paul,
  
  I never had this problem with C1 in Version 4. It really is starting to drive me crazy! Is it a common problem you think? What I am unclear about is that if C1 provide shortcuts such as (C)crop, doesn't it defeat the purpose to use the mouse to click on the image first?
  
  Once in the field input, I try and click the image and nothing happens. The only way to get out of the text input is to change tool.
  
  Do you think that this is a bug in the program and I need to address it with a customer support case?
  
  Thanks,
  
  Brendan
