Tab Navigation from the search box to the process list. #1930

Description of the feature, modification, idea or suggestion

I had a great experience with ProcessHacker, and it's even better with SystemInformer, it's an essential software on my PC so far, and at the first place I want to tell you and the community a big thanks.

But I have some struggle with keyboard navigation.

In the process hacker when I open it and search for a specific process (more often to terminate), I always hit tab, so I navigate to a first process list entry and then del + enter do the trick. I did almost all the work with only my keyboard, it's superfast.

But for some reason, SystemInformer does nothing when I'm trying to navigate somewhere via tab.

Proposed implementation details (optional)

Add tab navigation between search field and process/services/etc. entries. 🙏

Ctrl+K will navigate to and from the search box.

Ctrl+K is the shortcut for navigating to the search box, it was that way in Process Hacker too:

In Process Hacker Tab would return you to tree. In System Informer Ctrl+K returns you to the tree.

Oh, I get it now, thanks! But is there any way to bind the Tab key to the toggle? That would be a more natural way to navigate in this case, maybe some kind of option.

Or is it about the implementation of context change?
