I just found a problem with this and I'm not sure it's going to work.  It's totally my fault as well.  I've left comments in on the bug tracker issue let's discuss there...

I took a different route. I ended up doing a filter box that behaves like a modern autocomplete. As you type, it filters the entities in the list. If you press esc, it clears the filters. I felt much faster using this workflow. Let me know what you guys think:

There's more windows with that search box. For consistency, make sure you apply your fix to all those windows.

@func_klauscould you look into this issue?

I still have this. But it might be Linux specific. It only is noticeable with large maps. For example Volta 3 : Gemcutter , with this map the mouse click is blocked for at least 5 seconds when it loads the Entity List. This happens every time I click on the Entity List, coming from another window.

It also happens with fm COS 0 for example (medium sized fm), but the delay is like 1 second.

 

Quote

The moment I move to check out an entity and then move back to the Entity list, The mouse click and scroll is locked. I can move it around, but clicking is not possible (I can scroll in firefox for example with the keyboard just fine, so DR clearly takes over the mouse for no reason at all), until the entity list is remade.

@kingsal

@func_klaus do you think you could do the same for the 'Insert Prefab...' window?  It has the same issue.  I'll raise a ticket...

EDIT: https://bugs.thedarkmod.com/view.php?id=6731

[func_klaus]

Sure. Any other windows/panels?

Not that I've come across myself.  I only knew about the prefab one because it's always been an issue (to me at least).

[datiswous]

Thanks! Ehh so how did you fix it @func_klaus ?

It was repopulating the entity list inside the event handler, specifically inside onPanelActivated. I just made it lazy.
