Default ? about space bar for play

I have the space bar as the key to play and stop play...

I seem to recall there was some setting to prevent the VSTi that is in focus from losing that when we hit Space Bar...???

Here is the longer story:

Omnisphere... saving a patch, then trying to enter text into the various attributes and names, etc. So when I type My Name the space between My and Name starts reaper playing and I can't type into the fields in Omni....

Is there some simple solution?

is it only VSTi that does this? Anytime I have an FX window in focus, my spacebar doesn't work at all for transport. Perhaps you have the passthrough set? I'm not sure what that is exactly, I just know i read about it...and I don't use a lot of instruments, just processing plugins.

Hit shift + space bar when you want to add a space, when entering text?

Default Auto hot key?

There was a thread some time ago about using this to keep transport tied to space bar because it wasn't possible natively in Reaper ?!

I could be wrong but it now seems to me it is a buglet in Omnisphere itself.... when running as a VSTi in reaper, it will not let me enter text info about the patch when saving.... when running standalone it works as expected... so... I can only assume it is something that reaper and Omni don't love about each other... not a huge deal but it would be nicer to have it working as it should.
