Description
Issue type
UX/Interaction bug (incorrect behaviour)
Bug description
Tab and arrow keys do not behave as expected in Windows' dialogs.
Steps to reproduce
Open a score, make a change, try to close the program.
Do you want to save... dialog appears; it has 3 buttons: Save Don't save and Cancel.
There are no corresponding hot keys for buttons (such as Alt+S, Alt+D and Alt+C), but this might be intentional.
Tab and arrow keys were expected to move between active controls (3 buttons).
Instead, Tab switches to Save and would not move anywhere.
Left, Right and Down keys correctly cycle through all buttons.
Up keys moves left but would stop on Save.
Esc correctly cancels the dialog.
Enter would not press buttons and space bar would, but this had been reported in other issues.
