Description
a few nits about how scrolling, selection, and focus interplay:
- switching between view filters should not remove focus from the main grid view. currently, the focus shifts to the filter list.
- scrolling among the filters is likely much less common than scrolling within grid view. but if it was a design choice to have the view switch, then perhaps allow for quick tabbing betweem filter list and grid view?
- action of Home and End keys is odd. it changes to the top or bottom chunk of the grid view but doesnt change selection.
- if (3) is deliberate, then perhaps Ctrl-Home and Ctrl-End for changing to top or bottom?
- after Home or End, the arrow keys change behavior: rather than changing selection they cause the grid view to scroll.
- Typically Shift-Up and Shift-Down are used for scrolling a view rather than scrolling selection within view. In any case, it's not clear what the Up/Down keys are supposed to do and the behavior is inconsistent.
