When you have a modal window open that is setting the value for a logistics signal or a value in a constant combinator pressing tab should move cursor focus to first/next text field, instead of opening the map (assuming default keybinds), even if you haven’t selected another text field in that model yet.

I’ve currently unbound tab because it makes it much less cumbersome for me when updating/setting many logistics signals. Also just seems like more sensible less surprising behavior.

(Thanks in advance, love factorio and love to see it keep getting better!)

Same thing when configuring parameterized blueprint and not focused on input field. For example if you missed when selecting new field with mouse (instead of hitting tab/shift+tab several times) and than hit tab you are switched to remote view and loose all blueprint parameter configuration.

I also had to unbind TAB from Toggle Remove View just because of this. Which is a shame since TAB is an amazing hotkey for it.
