Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 23310
list box and combo box controls: platform consistent interaction
Last modified: 2017-05-20 11:29:22 UTC
Spec at http://specs.openoffice.org/ui_in_general/controls/DropDownListBox_ComboBox.sxw
waiting for spec approval
The spec is final, alas ready for implementation.
accepted.
summary of the spec: 1. The highlighted item must be applied if the item was highlighted using the keyboard and the list box is closed by clicking the list box arrow button. 2. TAB must select the highlighted item and close the listbox. 3. Alt-Up arrow: close listbox without applying selection. This applies to list and combo boxes.
This feature has to be postponed, as it requires severe changes in the handling of popup windows.
*** Issue 41729 has been marked as a duplicate of this issue. ***
spec updated to document change of target
ssa->hdu: please contact me before starting to implement this feature. as I wrote before the handling of popup windows (i.e. the case when they close) has to be changed, as the code currently is unaware of the type of the window.
