Bug #239
Console not closed when Control Panel opened
100%
Description
When the console is open and Shift-Esc if pressed, the console should
close and the control panel should appear.
Currently the control panel appears, but the console doesn't close. It
remains on the screen, obscuring the control panel.

Perhaps another Mac/Linux specific bug? This behaviour
doesn't exist under XP anyway...

Possibly. I'm getting this on Linux as well.

In previous versions, the console was not closed when the panel
was opened, but it was hidden. I seem to recall that if the
console was open when the panel was opened with Shift-Esc,
the console was still there when the panel was closed with
another Shift-Esc.
But now the console is drawn over the panel (i.e., Doomsday
UI). I believe it was one of Dani's changes that prevented
Con_Ticker from being called when the UI is active. The console
is now ticking always, and is closed explicitly when the UI is
activated.
