SF does not return focus to Pro Tools

Title

SF does not return focus to Pro Tools

What do you expect to happen when you run the script/macro?

Open a searchable Insert window on selected track

Are you seeing an error?

What happens when you run this script?

the issue is that if the search window is open and then I close the window via the "esc" key, Soundflow does not return focus to the main window of pro tools. PT is the focused app but the frontmost window is not in focus. This can be corroborated by the fact that the window title is greyed out. I think this is part of a larger SF issue where I notice that it hasn't returned focus to pro tools. will add other examples if I can find any.

How were you running this script?

I used a keyboard shortcut within the target app

How important is this issue to you?
