[Rseding91] [0.16.0] Arrow key tab navigation in map generator settings

Post by eradicator »

What?
Using the arrow keys to switch tabs in the new-game map generator settings to left/right [basic/resource/terrain/advanced] is broken in several ways:
  1. Pressing left/right arrow key switches to the next tab on both key_down AND key_up. So one press of a button always moves two tabs in that direction.
  2. Tab also switches on left_arrow_up when a slider is selected in the advanced tab. So on left_arrow_down the slider is adjusted leftwards and when releasing the key it also switches to terrain tab.

Thanks for the report. This may be fixed in 0.16.1 already. Can you update and confirm?

I could reproduce this in 16.0 and can no longer in .1 so this is fixed.

(Sorry for the delay. Not on the best connection currently ;) )

Confirmed "fixed" in the sense that now you can only use arrow keys to switch tabs if you first select a tab via mous click and it only advances one tab per button press. But it's kinda superflous if you have to click anyway ^^.

Arrow left/right seems to instead be the same as up/down for drop-down-lists. No idea what would be the ideal design paradigm here tho. Have left/right always navigate tabs unless the selected gui control does something else with left/right (i.e. something thats not already convered by up/down)?
