Description Milan Kubec 2006-11-02 08:41:24 UTC
dirchooser 1.0

- After opening the dirchooser by Ctrl+Shift+O it's not possible to navigate to
the tree by keyboard, tab traversal gets lost.

- Escape is not bound to Cancel action

"After opening the dirchooser by Ctrl+Shift+O it's not possible to navigate to

What would you like the tab to do? Currently, you can navigate the tree using
the arrows on the keyboard.

"Escape is not bound to Cancel action"

What action would you like to cancel using the escape button?

"What would you like the tab to do? Currently, you can navigate the tree using
the arrows on the keyboard."

- The problem I'm facing is that I cannot get to the tree via tab traversal, if
I hit tab when Cancel (last button in the dialog) is selected, focus is lost and
I cannot navigate at all - tab and Ctrl+tab do nothing. The only way how again
start traversal is to use Shift+tab, but even then I cannot get to the tree
(applies only if the tree wasn't selected before that by mouse). Navigating in
the tree by arrows works well.

What action would you like to cancel using the escape button?

- Escape should be bound to Cancel action of the whole dialog. I realized that
it sometimes works - if certain components have focus escape works as Cancel,
but if other components have focus (or focus was lost as described in previous
anwser) Escape does nothing.

Tree traversal and escape to cancel is fixed.
