Christian Lenz created NETBEANS-692:
---------------------------------------
Summary: Ctrl + left/right arrow key, should move to next part of
string in input fields
Key: NETBEANS-692
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-692
Project: NetBeans
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: platform - Other, platform - Text
Affects Versions: Next
Reporter: Christian Lenz
I don't know the exact component, so please change it, if it is wrong. Atm,
when I try to rename a file like inside the editor a little dialog opens with
an input field, where I can change the name. When I have a name smth like this:
`my-new-stuff.component` and I only want to change new, I hold ctrl +
left/right arrow, because I thought that I can navigate from the end to the
next part which is separated with a dot and with a dash.
This is not possible, because it only jumps to the beginning or to the end of
the string. This feature is a common feature to navigate to next words in your
OS explorer or in the editor of NetBeans. So we need this feature in all free
text form fields, where I can write text.
Fun fact, this feature is possible inside the search field for the editor, but
not inside the search field for "find in path".
So I don't know where to add this feature request, but long story short: We
need a consistent, navigation behaviour for each inputfield and select boxes,
where you can have free text too.
Hope it is clear what I mean, if not, please let me know.
Cheers
Chris
