I assumed that's what was happening, but I need to get my big magnifying glass out to see the visual change. Before they were banished by the flat-earther brigade the control that had focus would acquire a distinct border - flourescent orange was my favourite.

Makes sense to me - thanks.
Regarding the issue we discussed at this
post. I'll respond here because it has nothing to do with the AC plug and socket.
If anything metadata editing in the book list is a tad slower, but not enough to bother me.
I noticed if I tab through Tags and Publisher without changing them the Modified date doesn't change and the opf in the book folder isn't re-written,
However if I tab through Published without changing it, the Modified date changes to Now and the opf in the book folder is re-written. Same thing on a couple of custom columns:
Another book list editing issue. If I have a long text HTML column in the book list (I cloak them with column icons), when I tab into it in edit mode the dialogue to change the text pops. I'm open to suggestions to prevent that, e.g. if you tab into a long text HTML cell in edit mode, you'll jump out of edit mode and you'll have to press F2 if you want to edit the cell.
