Description Jeffrey Bruton 2012-09-30 22:13:22 CEST
Description of problem:
In the "Please Choose A Language To Use" dialog box which allows the user to select multiple languages, hitting the Tab key to cycle through the various fields works, however the dialog box acts like each of the list entries are a separate field instead of just considering the list (not its entries) to be a single field.  The result is when using the tab key to navigate the dialog the user should make a complete cycle by hitting the Tab key a maximum of 3 times:  Once to move to the list, second time to move to the Close button, and last to move to the OK button  (2 times maximum if the OK and Close buttons are considered one field to be navigated with the Right and Left arrow which does work).  As it is now, once you have Tabbed to the list, further Tabbing moves down each of the list members which takes a very long time.  Not professional and a hindrance to usability. 


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Boot off install DVD.
2.  Look at the "Please Choose A Language To Use" screen.
3.  Access the "Multiple languages" selection using keyboard or mouse, which will bring up the "Please Choose A Language To Use" dialog box.
4.  Hit the Tab key once.  This will take the focus to the list and highlight the first list entry ("Old compatibility (non-UTF-8) encoding").
5.  Hit the Tab key a second time and notice the focus stays on the list and the highlight is moved to the second list member ("All languages").
6.  Hit the Tab key again and again and notice the focus stays on the list and the highlight moves down the list.

Forgot to mention that the "Keyboard" dialog box brought up using the "More" selection in the Keyboard install screen works correctly.

In current installer it does not work exactly as described, but it does not work exactly as it should either: the buttons "Multiple languages" and "Help" cannot be reached with the tab key.

The individual languages in the main screen can be selected with the tab key + cursors. So it is almost okay, but not quite.

Summary: Tab key moves down the list instead of just moving fields in "Please Choose A Language To Use" dialog box => Tab key does not move to all buttons in "Please Choose A Language To Use" dialog box
Whiteboard: 3alpha2 => 5beta1

Comment 3 Thierry Vignaud 2015-05-18 04:40:52 CEST
That would be a gtk+ issue

CC: (none) => olav
Source RPM: drakx-installer-stage2 => gtk+3.0

Comment 4 Thierry Vignaud 2016-06-17 15:50:49 CEST
Works fine as of current cauldron

Status: NEW => RESOLVED
Resolution: (none) => FIXED
