I can move the navigation over tabs using Ctrl-Tab pressed several times. Afaik mnemonics is not used much with tabs. Ctrl+Tab doesn't work fine. I don't mean mnemonics really required for tabs, just described situation. Problems might be because plugins list is empty and this prevents navigation somehow. But for filled lists it works bad as well. Switching among tabs in the tabbed pane should be available by Ctrl+PgUp/Ctrl+PgDown. See details how to navigate in tabs at jlf guidelines: http://java.sun.com/products/jlf/ed2/book/Appendix.A15.html This is not P3 for sure. Ctrl+Arrow key doesn't work. Arrow key actually do not work as well, because there is no way set focus to tab from keyboard and in case focus set using mouse it move out after single arrow key press. It works fine on my Mac: Product Version: NetBeans IDE Dev (Build 200910100201) Java: 1.5.0_20; Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM 1.5.0_20-141 System: Mac OS X version 10.5.8 running on i386; MacRoman; en_US (nb) It works for me the following way: -Ctrl+DownArrow Moves from tab to its associated content pane -Ctrl+UpArrow Moves from content pane to its associated tab -Ctrl+PgDn Moves to next content pane (changing the corresponding tab) -Ctrl+PgUp Moves to previous content pane (changing the corresponding tab) The only shortcut that is working differently (is doing additional work is): -Left/Right Arrow - Navigates through tabs + sets focus to the split pane (which helps users to work directly with the component that is usually necessary to be focused by user - this is not standard behavior, but is as designed; users are forced to use rather Ctrl+PgDn/Up to switch among tabs). -Ctrl+DownArrow Moves from tab to its associated content pane -Ctrl+UpArrow Moves from content pane to its associated tab Do not work on Windows XP. Will file issues against each key-combination problem. |
