Activate text field for numeric Rotation
When the numeric rotation dialog is opened - it would be convenient when the text field is active for direct input of the Angle (I think this was the case in earlier versions).
In Ai19, the dialog is 'dead' - nothing happens when we start typing - whe have to type 5x Tab to get in the field.

I'm the OP for this bug posted over a year ago now. When I saw this revisit post I a) swore out loud, and b) made a note to not upgrade Illustrator from 23.1 until this was resolved.
I'm not interested in how you folks gave up ground on this issue, but please address this ASAP. That the same bug is back makes it so much worse the second time.
Thank you in advance - just keep in mind there are a bunch of us closely watching the progress on this one.

The rotate-tool had the numeric angle-input activated till v23. now in v24, this field has to be selected manually, which costs me a lot of time. Please change this back. To me this bad for efficiency.
My workflow before:
- select path
- press command-R
- enter angle
- press enter
I can do this blind and very fast.My workflow now means to manually select the field for entering the rotating angle, which is very annoying ! It takes much more time to do this now.

Also clicking the Rotate Angle name in the Transform Effect stopped selecting the Angle field.

1. Mac OS Catalina 10.15.1
2. Invoking the Rotate tool palette
3. Cursor focus in the angle text input box
4. Cursor focus is on the rotation angle icon (then moves to the Preview checkbox when hitting TAB) -

When using Transform > Rotate, please make the angle field active, as per previous versions. CC2019 requires a swipe with the I beam cursor, it didn't in previous versions!
