Keyboard shortcuts
A list of all keyboard keys supported by bamboolib
The following reference might seem a bit overwhelming. If you quickly want to learn the basics of how to use the keyboard, please follow the tutorial.
Before showing the keyboard reference, we need two definitions:
- When you focus/select a dropdown, you are in default mode.
- When you then start typing inside of it, you enter its auto-completion mode.
The following list shows all currently available keyboard shortcuts:
- Tab:
- Move on to the next input, except in the following cases:
- In single-select dropdowns: select the highlighted option and move to the next input field
- In multi-select dropdowns + default mode: move on the the next input
- In multi-select dropdowns + auto-completion mode: select the highlighted option
- Shift + Tab:
- Move to the previous input field
- Enter:
- Inside dropdown: select the highlighted option
- On a button: push the button
- Space:
- On a button: push the button
- On a checkbox: toggle the checkbox
- Arrow up / Arrow down:
- Inside a dropdown: navigate through the options
You can recognise single-select dropdowns from the black triangle on their right side. This 
is a single-select dropdown, while this 
is a multi-select dropown.
If you have feedback about how to improve the keyboard user experience (i.e. adding or changing keyboard shortcuts), please reach out.
