Restore "search as you type" list navigation #386

Open vslavik opened 7 years ago

vslavik commented 7 years ago

In Poedit 2, it is no longer possible to navigate the list by typing text (e.g.: Pressing the keyboard "C" key to scroll to the next string starting with "C" letter). This is used by conscientious translators to check consistency of translations for example, or for jumping to sections when using alphabetical ordering.

In Poedit 1, win32 LISTVIEW control was used, which supported quick navigation by typing characters, as NSTableView does (but limited to first column). wxDataViewCtrl is missing this functionality, so it has to be reimplemented in wx.

Reported in https://github.com/vslavik/poedit/issues/383 (too).

Please thumbs-up this issue's description if you are affected; don't add just "me too" comments (do add those offering new insight, thought!).
