Allow Keyboard Shortcuts When OSD is Open
#1
One small quirk of this skin is that when the OSD is opened keyboard input seems to be blocked, except to navigate the OSD menus. This means you can't use shortcuts like toggle subtitles or tab to minimize and return to Kodi without first closing the menu by tapping M.

It seems like a small thing but on PCs, especially ones with multiple monitors, it's actually pretty annoying. If you're using a different program, when you click in Kodi to return focus the OSD pops up and you have to close it, wait a beat, and then do whatever you were going to do. Most of the time I just want to swap to Kodi to quickly tap a keybind to toggle subs or tweak volume or brightness and having to close the menu first every time just becomes a chore, even though it's just another button press.

Is there any way to change this behavior?

Love the skin, massive thanks to the devs for all their work!

Hi merger3 and welcome to the fforums.
Thanks a lot for the kind words and support.

I don't have this issue at all on any systems.
If the OSD is opened, it has to be closed before you can TAB back to the previous window. That applies to all skins.

Please provide info on your system, Kodi version and Rapier version.

Do you have the same issue in Estuary and Confluence skins?
Please do the same detailed tests in these skins.
