A one-page form whose first field is a file picker with a note already picked opens with the keyboard focus on that note's remove button (×). This is now every one-page capture to a folder, tag or property: since #1955 the Capture to field comes first, and since #2099 it is a file picker that starts with the first note picked.
So on desktop:
- Typing the capture text right away goes nowhere.
- Enter or Space removes the picked note, and the field's note list opens over the form.
In 2.29.0 the same choice opened with the cursor in the capture text field, ready to type.
Steps
- Create a Capture with Capture to
People/, Capture format - {{VALUE:note}}, and one-page input Always.
- Run it from the command palette or a hotkey.
- Press Enter, or start typing.
Expected
The form opens ready for the first answer it still needs, here the note field, as in 2.29.0.
Actual
Focus is on Remove Thomas Anderson. Enter removes the note.
Master:

2.29.0:

{{FILE:}} fields with a picked note had the same first focus in 2.29.0, but only when one came first in the form.
Cause
Obsidian focuses the first focusable element in a modal after onOpen. In a file picker holding a note, that is the chip's remove button.
