New keyboard support for browsing list boxes

Post by David »

Capitalism Lab - new keys for browsing records within list boxes, available in the latest version 2.6.22

Details: http://www.capitalismlab.com/shortcut-keys.html

You can use PgDn/PgUp keys, and Up/Down keys to browse records within list boxes. This is context sensitive -- when there are several list boxes on the same screen, you can position your mouse cursor within one of the list boxes and the shortcut keys that you have pressed will affect the respective list box.

For example, there are several list boxes on the Products report. As the following screenshot shows, to browse products in the product list box, you can simply position your mouse cursor within the product list box, and use the PgDn/PgUp keys, and Up/Down keys to browse the records.

MODs with a large number of products will benefit from the uses of these keys to navigate the big list.

Could we got option to set the key binds in options? I'm mainly after moving around map with arrow keys.

Update: starting with version 6.1.00, while the mouse cursor is within a list, you may press the [HOME] key to go to the top of the list, and [BOTTOM] to go to the bottom of the list.
