TypeAhead results arrow jump between them

Post by mussor »

I would love to have an option to use simple arrow keys to jump between Type Ahead results.
Normally, arrow keys (down/up) goes to next item in the list regardless of type ahead being used.

I need to assign specific shortcuts for previous/next type ahead result. It would make sense that once type ahead has been used, arrow keys would move just between those results. You can always hit Esc to cancel Type Ahead and move beyond type ahead results.

What do you think? Or am I missing the option being already in there? :)

thx!!

You can assign custom keys to these commands in Tools | Customize Keyboard Shortcuts...:
Miscellaneous | Focus Functions | Next Type Ahead Match
Miscellaneous | Focus Functions | Previous Type Ahead Match

But it cannot be the arrow keys. They are reserved.
