Actually, sorry, I was confused. This is still a bug in the Store. What I'm asking for here is additional behavior, specific to the case where "the insertion point (caret) is at the trailing end of the search field". The Store should focus the search results pane (however GTK does it), and should *also* actively select the first result.
This is not standard behavior for text fields, it should not be standard behavior for treeviews, and it shouldn't even be standard behavior for package list views in the Store. (For example, it shouldn't happen if you tab to the search results pane.) But I think it is appropriate extra behavior for the specific case of the down arrow key at the end of the search field, because it makes keyboard navigation for the search results more consistent with keyboard navigation for an autocomplete menu in a Web browser. -- >From search field, Down key selects first result but doesn't focus it https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/426232 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
