Description ccv 2003-09-10 06:18:04 UTC 
We have some dialogs, where table sell is
combobox.
1. Setup Wizard/Module Installation tab, Enabled
column
2. Debugger Window/Breakpoint View, Enabled column 
3. Options window, User column.

It is impossible to select any combo item using
mouse, but I didn't find any keys combination for
opening the combobox using keyboard.
It is very important issue for next Netbeans
release where all property sheet buttons will be
redesigned as the table with combo and they will
be not accessible at all.

Are you sure that this bug has priority P2?

reassigned to openide/explorer.
Comment 3 ccv 2003-09-10 09:50:59 UTC 
According Accesibility Bug Priority Guidelines:
P1 showstopper
- A component is completely unreachable by keyboard 
P2
- A component is difficult to reach by keyboard

So, it is rather P1 if there is no workaround.
