• xe:valuePicker - activate pop-up with keyboard

    By Jared Jones 1 decade ago

    It is nice to be able to fill out a form without having to use the mouse.  Currently the only way to activate the valuePicker is to click it with the mouse.

    Please add the ability to bring up the picker by giving it focus, and hitting the space bar (or similar).

    • Will consider this

      As the value picker icon is implemented via a link, the 'Enter' key triggers it when it has the focus.

      Now, as we want to move the controls to the IBM accessibility standard, these controls will be updated to provide a better experience. This should come in the course of the year and I don't want to add some temporary behaviors that will be incompatible with the forementioned standard.
