Forcing focus breaks plugins
See original GitHub issueI’ve noticed that when i call focus() on the Editor, the emoji and mention plugins do not work – that is, they do not respond to : or @ and suggestions do not populate. I’m guessing focus() is somehow messing with the selectionState…any ideas on this?

I was able to find a temporary solution to this problem by using
setTimeouton the call tofocus:setTimeout(this.editor.focus, 50)Strangely enough, this seems to solve the problem even if you set the timeout value to 0.
My original guess on why this works was that there is still something in the mention suggestions that is still in the process of mounting or rendering, but the parent component’s
componentDidMountshould’t be called until after all this is complete…so really not sure.I just spent about 2 hours to figure out why my
mentionandlinkifyplugin weren’t working. That was so frustrating.We should give more attention to this issue.
