Description

Issue type

UX/Interaction bug (incorrect behaviour)

Bug description

Once in a score, if you want to add a symbol from a palette, you now have a number of Tabs or F6 + Tabs to get to the relevant part of the UI. In previous versions, the F9 key (View menu Palette) would take the focus to the Palette.

Steps to reproduce
  1. Select any note on a score using arrow keys.
  2. Press F9
    Expected Behaviour: The focus shifts to the palette
    Actual Behaviour: Nothing, the note remains focused.
