Arjen Markus (7 february 2003) This page is meant to discuss what people expect from traversing listboxes via the keyboard and how to implement this:
- Besides the Page-Up and Page-Down keys, I often want to just type "k" to go to the first or next item that starts with "k".
- If you do this, what are the consequences for the selection that may be in progress?
- Does it make sense? Or should this merely be a facility to move the listbox to that particular item.
- As listboxes do not often get the keyboard focus by default, how do we enable such a feature?
- This could be a useful feature in Tklib - any one wants to give it a try?
