ASF GitHub Bot commented on NIFI-3803: -------------------------------------- Github user mcgilman commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/nifi/pull/2170 Thanks for the PR @yuri1969! I had tried implementing this awhile back allowing the user to tab into the table and then navigate from there. I wasn't thrilled with the solution has it required the user to tab twice to get focus into the first visible row. I believe the double tab was required due to the 'focusSink' that `SlickGrid` adds to the DOM [1]. This functionality is already in your master. In conjunction with your PR, I like the capability much better. Now the user can navigate from the filter field and from the table if they get focus into the table via tab (albeit double tab) or clicking on a row. Just a couple minor comments on the PR. - I believe these `nfFilteredDialogCommon` needs to be included in nf-settings for the Add Reporting Task dialog. - Also, I was wondering if it would be possible for pageDown/pageUp to select the first/last visible row after navigating. The behavior seems a little inconsistent currently. If the table has/had focus from clicking on a row, then the pageDown/pageUp behavior seems right. If it hasn't, the pageDown/pageUp just navigates the view but does not change the selected row. It would be nice if the selected row changed with the view regardless if the navigation is being triggered through `nfFilteredDialogCommon` or through the existing capabilities. Let me know if you need to me to explain what I'm seeing further.
