Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 13931
Comboboxes in toolbars have different focus behaviour
Last modified: 2003-06-02 10:58:03 UTC
When a blind user travel along toolbars he does not know whether the focus is on a combobox. He also don't know that he has to press Enter to step into these comboboxes. This should be changed.
MT->SSA: We didn't find a solution for that when thinking about that some month ago. You think we find a better solution? Can we at least start typing without pressing enter before, unless it's KEY_UP/DOWN/LEFT/RIGHT? => GrabFocus to control, send key event. If not, it must become OOo 2.0.
Alphanumerical input now goes directly into the embedded control when cycling through toolbars. The focus is grabbed in a way that selects the whole contents of the (edit-)control, which means the old text is deleted upon the key press. If you just hit enter, the text is selected as well but you can use the cursor keys to remove the selection. This behaviour is the same as in dialogs. Fixed in CWS vcl09.
ssa->ru: please verify in CWS vcl09.
Checked and verified in cws vcl09 -> OK !
