Noticed that the Enter key does not apply the typed text in the Text Video FX window as it did in 3.x
Although the "send video FX to output" can be controlled by a separate shortcut, it is helpful for the Enter key to apply the typed text in our busy Djing environment. Anything to avoid having to reach for the mouse is helpful.

ok, so I discovered that it works this way:
Shift ENTER will commit what ever text was typed and the activate FX command will send it to output.
So this is ok, but not as fast as 3.x. It does have more flexibility, and a way to exit the text editor window without the mouse would fix the need.
So to explain a little more, previously in 3.x, using ENTER to commit the text also removed the text editor window and focus immediately returned to the decks and other panels, ready for other shortcut commands. With 4.0, even after Shift ENTER to commit the text, the focus is still in the text editor window and you have to use the mouse to change the focus.

Can we get some attention on this one ? The problem still exists in 4.1
The focus of the keyboard needs to return to the deck and browser panels after Shift Enter is used to commit text.
Furthermore, the select_video_fx [Text] action does not put you in Text edit mode unless the current video FX is something other than Text.
This definately needs some cleanup.

Also CTRL-ENTER no longer works, for new line.
And the plugin would be better if there was a tickbox, to enable the plugin to remember all settings, size, location, and the text typed!
