Description MarjaE 2021-12-11 22:00:10 UTC
Description:
Lists within the Preferences pane don't allow users to page down, and make it very slow to move otherwise.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open Preferences.
2. If you can see enough to find it, open Application Colors.

Actual Results:
3. Try to Page Down, it'll move you to another section.

4. Go back to Application Colors.

5. Try to Page Down, it won't move through the list.

6. Try to use the Down Arrow, it won't move either.

7. Click on the scrollbar, it won't move to the selected spot, but only move about 1/4 of a row for every click, making movement slow and very click-intensive.

Expected Results:
Page Down should work, Down Arrow should work, clicking on the scrollbar should move faster.


Reproducible: Always

Confirmed, but it is panel specific.

The Application Colors panel does not parse keyboard movements, but others like Writer -> Compatibility, or Base -> Connections do.

However, since all the panels respond to scrollbar mouse actions --i.e. click on the up/down button, or click-drag of the panel thumb-- some inconsistency in keyboard navigation is pretty minor here.

There are no up-down buttons.
