  • Ticket #698 – Description

    initial v2  
    66
    77 * Support keyboard accelerators, which are usually specified with an ampersand (&) character in the caption of an input control (the corresponding accelerator is often underlined). This way a dialog that asks "&Yes"/"&No" could be answered with the Y or N keys.
     8
     9 * Keys could be useful for navigating text lists and dropdowns. Imagine a map list with hundreds of items and you want to skip to "Punjab 1", it should be possible by tapping `P` to jump to maps named starting with 'p'. That's the simple case; a more complicated extension would be typing multiple characters to match partial words, but that gets messy and is never fully intuitive.
