Description

@tobiasdiez

JabRef version

5.15 (latest release)

Operating system

Windows

Details on version and operating system

No response

Checked with the latest development build (copy version output from About dialog)

  • I made a backup of my libraries before testing the latest development version.
  • I have tested the latest development version and the problem persists

Steps to reproduce the behaviour

  1. Go into the URL field in the entry editor
  2. Press Tab.

Empty space is inserted instead of jumping to the next field.

Appendix

The reason is that https://github.com/JabRef/jabref/blob/main/src/main/java/org/jabref/gui/fieldeditors/EditorTextArea.java is used over https://github.com/JabRef/jabref/blob/main/src/main/java/org/jabref/gui/fieldeditors/EditorTextField.java in some fields that sholud be normal single-line fields: Url, Identifier, Owner, Issn
