Bug ID: 156557
Summary: Cannot use Shift+Tab to tab backwards through side bar
Product: LibreOffice
Version: 24.2.0.0 alpha0+ Master
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: medium
Component: UI
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Usually, navigating through the UI is possible using the Tab key (to move one
element forward) and using Shift+Tab (to move one UI element backwards).
However, moving backwards in the sidebar doesn't work to get all the way back
to the top.
1) In Writer press Ctrl+Alt+1 to open the Properties deck (note that the
"Style" panel title will be focused)
2) press Tab a few times to move focus through the UI elements in the sidebar
panel (OK)
3) try to move backwards by pressing Shift+Tab, starting with focus in the
"Font Name" combobox in the "Characters" section:
3.1) press Shift+Tab once -> moves focus to the "More options" button above
(OK)
3.2) press Shift+Tab again -> moves focus to the "Character" heading left to
that (OK)
3.3) press Shift+Tab again
Actual result:
The "Font Name" combobox gets focus again, i.e. it's not possible to move
further up the sidebar deck again using Shift+Tab, there's a cycle.
Expected result: Focus should move to the UI element above the "Character"
heading.
It should do the opposite of what happens when using just the Tab key (i.e.
without Shift) when focus is on the previous UI element.
Note: See also the discussion in https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/154918
