Hello,
I used up/down keys to navigate into block and layer lists widgets. I also typed characters to select layers with that starting character.
Now it is not possible for me. Arrow keys are always panning, even if I click on a layer or block name. I think it has become like this since my last 3.20 or 3.20.1 QCAD Professional update.
Any feedback will be appreciated. Best regards,
David

Re: Impossible to navigate by keyboard in some widgets
I can confirm.
Navigating with arrows is not possible due to arrows being used for moving the selection / panning.
This could probably be implemented by respecting widget focus, although that might be frustrating since you'd always have to check for widget focus before panning..
Navigating by typing the first letters is not possible due to the letter based shortcuts ("LI", "CI", etc.).
I don't think this can work in QCAD. Are you sure that you did this in previous versions?

Absolutely sure. But I had to select first one of the layers in the Layers List widget.andrew wrote:Navigating by typing the first letters is not possible due to the letter based shortcuts ("LI", "CI", etc.).

Is there any way to disable panning with keys so that you can restore previous behavior?

I'll add a preference for this under
