save dialog: enable tab after filename match
Last modified: 2014-01-26 19:05:32 UTC
When saving-as and a filename begins like that of a previously-named file so a match is found in a drop-down menu, arrowing down to select a name is efficient. Once that's done, however, the next sensible efficient step is to tab to the next control in the Save dialog. But tabbing doesn't allow leaving the filename control, and pressing Enter saves the file without access to the other decisions. A mouse click is needed to set the location or file type, but mousing is less efficient than typing shortcuts. So, tabbing should be enabled to get to other controls in the Save dialog. The same problem occurred whether the matched filename was edited by deleting character or not edited at all. A user might match without editing because intending to change the location. I'm using OOo Writer 2.4.0 without Java Runtime Environment on Linux Fedora Core 4 with Gnome 2.10.0 desktop on a Pentium 4 laptop. Thank you. -- Nick
