GUI blocking keyboard input?

[ThunderStorm]

Really, i don't have a clue what is happening here:
On the map screen, I have a small GUI in a fixed position showing the @OVERHOTSPOT@ text. It is set to 'script only' and switched on when loading the room in the 'player enters screen' funtion. (Before or after fadein makes no difference). Now when the GUI is on, no keyboard input is accepted anymore. Neither F5, F7 nor F9 and Ctrl-C work. Any ideas on what might be wrong here? I'm using AGS v2.54 by the way.

Just change it to always on as it is the mode that doesn't block (doesn't pause) the game. The on_key_press() is triggered in either way btw.

Eek - that's it. And even worse: it's clearly said in the manual under 'editing the GUIs'.
Anyway, thanks for your help!

The wording of these GUI types has been confusing people for a while, so I'm going to change them for the next version to hopefully make it clearer.
