Switch between panes are not working using arrows or tab
Hi,
when downloading the current Calypso from the pharo6 catalog I noticed that this version doesn't support switching between panes by error keys or tab key. Surely this is not a problem when using the browser on a machine with a mouse so much.
But when using it on a laptop with a not so well fabricated mousepad like the Acer Aspire One then it is a problem.
Also when people are expected to use Calypso daily when working they could easily develop an injury.
So it would be great if this issue is atleast considered when building the browser and laying the base for others to build on.
Thank you for your time :-)
Continuing our discussion. You can try implement it. It should be done with command which parameter will be browser itself. Then it should detect focused navigation view and switch focus to next one. All logic here is about morphic. At the end you will attach shortcut activator to command and you are done.
So last stable version support arrows navigation between panes like in Nautilus. You can try and comment.
So can I close it? or something is still missing?
Ok the arrows work now. But how do I jump from the editor textarea back to the panes? Like when I edit a method body and want to go to next class or next method.
Btw. maybe that's a bug or not, but when holding up or down key while being in a list, the display doesn't update immediately. Is that a problem of FastTables Widget which you use? Do you use it?
Switching between editor tabs with some shortcut would be also great. But I don't know where to look that up.
So the latest version includes special Spotter menu which allows all of this. It is activated by cmd+/ (settings available).
Both the arrows and the Spotter menu work correctly, this issue can probably be closed.
