My phpDesigner 8.1 looses focus when I use any autocomplete. It is really annoying because i have to click into the window each time I use autocomplete. Does somebody know how to fix this? I tried the protable version and the setup. Both have the same behaviour.

1I think you should report this issue to the developers of the application. – core1024 Jul 22 '13 at 06:51

Could finally fix it on my own. Teamviewer was the problem.
See this phpDesigner Changelog.
phpDesigner 7 phpDesigner 7 version 7.2.5 -- 1. March 2011
[...]
Fixed. The code completion loses focus. This is a problem caused by Teamviewer. When Teamviewer is running it puts a small button near windows options buttons, you need to click that button and cancel Teamviewer for phpDesigner.exe and phpDesigner 7 will work fine again. The same applies to Actual Windows Manager.
EDIT: Seems like mpsoftware.dk removed their changelog. Here is the old page: phpDesigner Chagnelog (New Link)

2I tried to debug the input events on that window. Teamviewer catches all inputs (for checking if I click on their icon) and if I didnt click on their icon they send the same window message again (to emulate the keypress). Php Designer didnt like that. – feedc0de Jun 22 '15 at 06:55

Delayed answer BUT to fix this just go to Teamviewer Option > Advanced > Show advanced options > QuickConnect Button > Configure > Untick Show QuickConnect Button

I've been battling with this issue for 6 months now and was about to go through the tedious process of changing IDE. It didn't happen for me on Windows 7, but started with Windows 10! Thanks very much :-) – Ben Feb 22 '18 at 08:32
