Closed CharlesVanek closed 1 month ago

CharlesVanek commented 1 month ago

When navigating with keyboard only, pressing Enter on the Notes ## navigation should put cursor focus into the list of ## notes. From there the user should be able to arrow up/down through the Notes and press Enter to be taken to the Note's Pane for editing.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Open Stndard Notes on Windows; Tab to navigation "Notes ##" where ## is the number of notes you have
  2. Press Enter on "Notes ##"

Expected behavior Cursor positioning to move to the list of Notes (this does not occur) and the user should be able to navigate the list of Notes with up/down arrows.

Desktop (please complete the following information):

Additional context This is critical for WCAG compliance to navigate the Standard Notes application using screen readers for for people who can't use a pointing device and rely upon keyboard navigation. In addition it's beneficial for productivity of all users.
