    Description

      Hello,

      With latest version of QtCreator, when using split screen, switching from left to right editor takes ~= 1sec to be fully applied, even if cursors properly moves to the target editor. This leads shortcuts to be applied to the wrong editor, which is quite confusing.

      Example:

      1. With one file on the left, one on the right, left editor is the "active" one
      2. Copy one text or something from the left
      3. Click on the right editor and press Ctrl+V
      4. Text appears in the left editor instead of the right one

      Observations:

      At step 3), when we click on the right editor, we can see that in "Open Documents", the focus takes ~= 1sec to change to the file of the right editor, which seems to be the period of time when shortcuts (Ctrl+V, Ctrl+Z, etc.) will be applied wrongly on the left editor.

      No issue when simply typing right away on the targeted editor.

      I don't remember having this issue with Qt Creator 7.0.0, but I might be wrong.

      Don't hesitate to ask for more information if needed,

      Thank you,
      Louis
