Tool palette filter buttons not responding to first click after changing workspace

To reproduce this problem…

  1. Select one of the filter buttons and the tools for that filter are correctly displayed.
  2. Change workspace
    • notice that the full list of tools for that filter are correctly displayed
    • notice that the filter button is no longer highlighted
  3. Click on the same filter button
    • the button flashes to highlighted and back to unhighlighted
    • the tools are not updated to reflect the clicked filter
  4. Click on the same filter button a second time
    • the button changes to being highlighted
    • the tools are correctly updated to reflect the clicked filter

If you click on any other filter button after changing workspace, everything works as expected.

@StevenL can I flag you on this one ?

I can confirm this behaviour (DPL 4.1.2 on Mojave)

It appears to works differently in the Windows version. When you select a filter, features display as expected. If you then change the workspace the filter closes and the newly selected workspace appears…

But what happens if you select the same filter again after the change of workspace? Does the filter take effect immediately or does it need a second click on the button?

Selecting a filter after changing workspaces in Windows works immediately and correctly. I guess this is a Mac only bug.

It looks like it.

Thanks @Joanna!
