Keyboard input hangs at PIOHome in VSCode

[Vladislav_Kravchenko]

Dear All,

I’m a newbe in PlatfromIO IDE. I use VSCode under Win10x64 + PlatfromIO IDE. Everything is with the latest versions updated.

EVerything works fine expect PIOHome page. Very often (50%) I can’t enter any value to text fields (search fields are there). For example, searching for a lib or creating a new project. I have close PIOHome page and re-open it.
At the same time rest of the tabs with text works very well.

What can be wrong?

Possibly that you didn’t search before posting?

PIO Home bug when updated to latest version

It’s a known bug that needs to be fixed by the Visual Studio Code team. Also see: Unresponsive IDE Can't enter text PIO Home Search fields I cannot create a new Project Cannot copy and paste examples in VS Code + Mac As a workaround, double-click the PIO home tab.

There has been over half a dozen posts about this recently… this response for the suggested workaround until Microsoft fix it. As the post says, workaround is to simply double-click the PIO Home tab when it loses keyboard focus.
