open session cursor not over the session list [3]

open session cursor not over the session list

Wednesday, July 25, 2018 8:17 AM - fcying

In the last version.

when I open session, The cursor is over the search box, When I type the name and press Enter, it won't open directly.

In the old version(Xshell.exe: 6.0.0010)
when I open session, The cursor is over the session list , When I type the name and press Enter, it will open directly.

Is there any way to switch back to the old way of using it?

Program Ver. : Xshell 6

With the latest release, we changed the focus to be on the filter box. This is because filtering sessions is thought to be the preferred method of selection when there are many sessions in the list. This has been requested heavily by our users. As you've discovered, the tab key will bring the focus to the list.

Regardless, I'll have your suggestion sent to our devs for review. Thank you!

Maybe you can improve this function. When I press Enter, I can directly open the first searched session.

Can you please revert this change or better to make it optional. Cause filtering is terribly slow. And also as it was already mentioned above you have to press additional button to connect.
