Find window loses focus making it impossible to use

[SanPollo]

Operating System and Version

FreeBSD 15.1-RELEASE-p2

Distribution

FreeBSD packages

Description

Environment: XFCE on X.org

When invoking the Find window, either via Find or Replace in the Search menu, or using the shortcut keys, it immediately changes the focus back to the main Notepad Next window, making typing in either the Find or Replace text boxes impossible. Instead, the text is typed into the document.

Even if you click on the Find window, or in one of its text boxes, the focus immediately changes to the main window.

This affects both of my FreeBSD machines, which are configured the same (XFCE on X.org)

Steps to Reproduce

1. Create a new document.
2. Type some text, for example, This is a test.
3. Place the cursor somewhere, for example, after This
4. Invoke the Find window, for example, by using [CTRL] + [F].
5. Type the text to search for, for example, test
