Write a bug report. Maybe Apple will fix it.

First Character Recognition in Lists

2022-12-09 Thread Bill Gallik
I’m having an issue navigating a list wherein I want to move into the list by 
typing the first character of list items so as to quickly move down into that 
part of said list.  As I’ve mentioned in prior e-mailings, I have a number of 
“signature tags” that I’ve created from “Quote of the Day” in prior days and 
now “Brainy Quotes.”  I save each daily quote in a text file in a dedicated 
folder and then create the signature tag matching that file name.  I’m inclined 
to keep these signature tags in alphabetical order so when I create such a tag 
that begins with a letter later in alphabetical order I’d like to be able to 
enter the list of signature names and enter the first letter so I’ll be placed 
in that region of the list.  That is not working consistently.

For example, the “Second Mouse” tag below is a bit down the list; yet if I 
wanted to create a tag such as “Wisdom Outweighs,” simply typing a “w” upon 
entering the signature list often does nothing at all.  The aggravating aspect 
of this is that SOMETIMES it works.  And to top it off, when I am in a folder
