Is there any way to enable some form of keyboard navigation within/through the PropertyGrid? Many other PG implementations allow for Tab/Shift+Tab and/or arrow keys to be used to navigate through the grid controls. This is incredibly useful when dealing with large sets of properties, especially if you need to change many properties. |

Hello Reed This will take some time to implement, so I've noted this down to look into later. In the mean time, you could put this on the think tank which can help boost its priority: http://www.mindscapehq.com/thinktank/product/15 Jason Fauchelle |

Jason, I actually was going to try to hack around this, but it looks like it's already been implemented - but has a bug. Shouldn't setting CursorKeyMode="Navigate" on the PropertyGrid make arrow keys navigate the property grid? It appears to handle it if you click on the names, but there's no way to get "into" the item... Basically, you can see (if you have a description panel) that the selected item is changing with up/down, but it's not actually allowing you to select the editor in any way... Is there any way to make this work? -Reed |

Hello Reed At my end it looks like you can select the editor by pressing the right arrow key. This can get me into text boxes to start typing, or focus check boxes which can be toggled using the Space button. Overall it still seems very incomplete though as once a text box has focus, you can not easily navigate out of it. It will take a while to get this all working correctly which we won't be able to look into right now. I'll let you know when this is fixed. Jason Fauchelle |
