    Description

      Hello,

      preconditions:

      1. fully upgraded Ubuntu 22.04.3 LTS
      2. fully upgraded qt creator (installed to ~user/ using the qt maintanence tool)

      steps to reproduce:

      1. start qt creator
      2. use an empty session
      3. file->new project->qt widgets application
      4. name it untitled, save it to /tmp
      5. for the rest of that dialog you can accept the defaults, next->next->finish
      6. file->new file->double click on c++ class
      7. notice that the cursor blinks in the class name textbox of the dialog box
      8. start typing the name of your class e.g. myTestClass

      expected behaviour:

      considering the fact that from the user perspective we're in a dialog box workflow and considering the fact that the cursor blinks in the class name textbox and considering the fact that I have a window in the foreground above the IDE main editor,  my instinct tells me I'm going to enter text to the class name textbox, and not into the IDE main editor

      actual behaviour:

      the text that I type gets entered into the IDE main editor

      Thank you in advance for the fix
