Key binding and focus problem

[Salvodif]

Hi,

I wrote this binding

    BINDINGS = [
        # ("d", "toggle_dark", "Toggle dark mode"),
        ("ctrl+q", "quit", "Quit application"),
        # ("n", "next_page", "Next page"),
        # ("p", "prev_page", "Previous page"),
        ("ctrl+i", "insert", "Insert book"),
        ("ctrl+d", "details", "Book details")
    ]
....
    def action_insert(self) -> None:
        """Show the Insert Book screen."""
        self.set_focus(None)  # Clear focus to prevent cursor movement
        self.push_screen(InsertBookScreen(on_file_selected=self.on_file_selected))

but when I press "ctrl+i" the buttons present on my terminal are focused and no InsertBookScreen shows.

Any idea?

Depending on your terminal, I'm afraid the tab key is indistinguishable from pressing ctrl+i. Textual can only ever support key combinations that are passed on by your terminal application.
