Option to set string based on hightlighted entry in a ComboBox #122

Closed Jopyth closed 9 years ago

Jopyth commented 9 years ago

If you quickly want to select options for a string property, it is easier to set the string based on the currently highlighted item. No need to open the ComboBox several times to select one choice after the other.

This is only done if the Option "highlightActiviation" is set.

You could also use the up and down arrow keys while the combo box is active.

Arrow keys also work, however the option to do the same thing with the mouse offers faster and more precise navigation through a long list of choices, as the arrow keys depend on the character repeat rate. Also "scanning" through the list and changing direction with the mouse feels easier.
