Akshay's work on the Template manager is moving along, but with current build of master seem to have some issues with keyboard navigation. The keyboard navigation into and out of the Template manager will need additional work to obtain consistent behavior with the Recent Files thumbnail navigation. The <F10> and <shift>+F10 should position between the main menu and the template backing panel of the thumbnail views in the template manager. <F6> and <shift>+F6 should cycle between main menu, the vertical menu bar, and the active template backing panel/thumbnail views. Once in the template manager backing panel, the 4 cursor actions should be able to reach all the thumbnails. They don't now and are limited to 8 thumbnails between two rows. =-ref-= Version: 5.3.0.0.alpha0+ Build ID: cbf36dd473fdc9e8d8b78c9e9317836a7cbbc6c7 CPU Threads: 8; OS Version: Windows 6.19; UI Render: default; TinderBox: Win-x86@42, Branch:master, Time: 2016-06-01_00:32:07 Locale: en-US (en_US)
Sounds great. Hope the functionality implemented in the start center doesnt negatively affect the template manager dialog.

I believe F10 and F6 are handled on the start center level and not something that was a problem with Akshay's code, but what was wrong was the arrow key navigation, which is now fixed with the patches.
