UI changes[]
- Hitting enter now clicks the currently-focused button, or the default button if there is one
- If a button has an orange highlight, Enter will press it
- Ctrl-W closes the currently-focused floater
- Ctrl-[ and Ctrl-] now move through preferences tabs
- Esc closes menus, then defocuses floaters, then resets the camera position
- By default, hitting enter in an empty chatbar no longer closes the chatbar
- Turn on the “close chat after hitting return��? preference if you want this behavior
- Arrow keys always control the avatar when the chat bar is empty, regardless of the status of the ‘arrow keys move avatar when chatting’ preference
- Enter closes and opens highlighted inventory folder
- Can move through radio options using left/right as well as up/down
- Give focus to the IM text field when you reopen it
- IM window doesn’t close if you hit Ctrl-T when it’s unfocused
- Floaters handle all keystrokes when focused
- Hitting Enter won’t chat when focus is on the UI
- Ctrl-Tab and Tab will get you (almost) anywhere
- Ctrl-Tab cycles through floaters, toolbars, etc.
- Floaters are cycled in the order they were opened, and reordered so that it’s easy to switch between the two most recent
- Hitting TAB when nothing has focus goes to chat bar, if available
- Opening a floater automatically puts focus there
- Focus appearance now makes more sense: focused floaters have opaque backgrounds, and lightened title bars; unfocused floaters are transparent
- Clicking in world (or hitting ESC) will remove focus from the UI, and make all floaters transparent
- Alt key access to menus. Hold down Alt and navigate via the underlined letters
- Visual integration of context-sensitive controls with the bottom panel
- Improved focus behavior of notifications and group notifications, and their appearance
- Type-ahead find in listboxes and combo boxes
- When focus is on the widget, type the first few letters of the desired selection and the selection will move as you type
- Very useful for long lists such as the Friends list or the Script function combo box
- Type-ahead find is visually indicated with an oblong highlight.
- Type-ahead find cycles through the items in a list or combo that have the same first letter
- Example: repeatedly typing ‘r’ will put selection on each element of the list that starts with ‘r’
- “Cone of context��? for color pickers and texture pickers
- Objects visually lose focus when application loses focus, and regain them when application is refocused
- Storage of last focused item in floaters, so that focusing a floater puts focus back where it was last time you were using it
- Mini-map can’t take focus, nor can camera/movement controls
- Have to double-click on the mini-map to open the main map
- Mousewheel zooms on the mini-map, and the scale limits allow you to zoom in more
- IM tabs opened by you are added to the right of the open tab (IM tabs opened by other means open to the far right, as before)
- Removed tab characters from most text editors except for the notecard and script editors
- Deprecated Alt-WASD for moving the camera (these keys now select the appropriate menus)
- Use Alt-arrow keys instead
- Hitting enter when in preferences will now close and commit them
