Editor won't let me type sometimes.
Windows NT 10.0, Firefox 59.0, Flash 29.0 (release 0), Chrome 65.0.3325.181, Flash 29.0 (release 0)
Sometimes I can't type inside the editor at all, whether I'm typing in the title, the input, or pretty much anywhere that I can type in the editor. I can type fine anywhere else. This seems to happen the most right after I open the project. I have to type in the search bar in order to be able to type in the editor again, and sometimes after that, the editor won't let me type still. This bug sometimes occurs, sometimes not. I'm not sure when this started, maybe up to couple days ago.
I've tried to recreate this on Chrome, (what I did is create a project, add some blocks, run the project, then type anywhere inside the editor) and the bug didn't occur. This happened numerous times on Firefox (the main browser I use) when I tested on it.
Both browsers are up to date. (Firefox version 59.0, Chrome version 65.0.3325.181)
Flash is also up to date on both browsers. (Both version 29.0, release 0)
I've tried my best to provide as much information as possible.
Any explanation?
Apologies if this a duplicate.

I have the same problem.
HOW TO FIX:
1. Click an input box outside Scratch (such as address bar, search bar,…)
2. Type again.

I have the same problem.Thanks for the response! However, I already mentioned this in the OP.

I'm asking for why this happens.

I believe this is a flaw with Flash and Firefox (odd, since Firefox usually doesn't have flaws
). Don't click the search bar, that will do nothing, just click the editor again, it should let you type.
