I'm referring to the detached BD panels (non-modal dialogue boxes) not the embedded BD panel under or to the right of the book list/grid, i.e:
After popping either of these (in my 'priority' order)
- I can't find a way to return focus to the Book list via the keyboard, apart from closing the dialogue.
There is a Focus the book list shortcut which I have set to Ctrl+Alt+L, alas it doesn't work. Assuming that can't be easily fixed, I suggest a Return to Book list item be provided in the panel context menu.
And there needs to be a way of returning focus to a panel that's already 'popped' - I suggest by re-pressing the relevant shortcut, or via re-selection of the Book details menu item.
- I can tab through the columns and initiate a library search by pressing Enter or Return. I find this significantly easier than fishing in the Tag Browser (which I normally have hidden).
I can also access the column's context menu via the menu-key or Shift+F10, but on a category column the context menu is incomplete - there's no Manage <whatever> or Remove <whatever> option… yet there is if I right click… why the difference?
AFAIK, the Menu key and Shift+10 are supposed to be the equivalent of right click on Windows, and I haven't found any other instances in calibre where that's not the case.
- I can't Tab to the 'Configure' link, IMO it should get focus after Fit cover, but focus goes to Previous.
That's the problem with adding new features, someone will use them
