The replacement list widget in GTK+-2.0 has an interactive search feature that handles this; when we switch over to GTK+-2.0, we'll get this capability. |
Description of Problem: Pressing a key when GtkList has focus should make the list scroll to the next item whose name begins whith the letter of the key pressed. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How Reproducible: 1. Open a file using File->Open in gnotepad+ 2. Press i.e. '.'. 3. Wait for the list to scroll to a file that begins with a dot. Actual Results: Nothing. Expected Results: The list scolls. Additional Information: When a GtkList has has lots of items it can be very frustrating using the mouse, arrow keys or Page{Up,Down} to jump to, or close to the desired item. An effective way to scroll the GtkList on a general basis is needed.
