Recent files - cannot scroll up and down with arrow keys

[Victor Warner]

Using latest version (307).


For Viewer 2.5.x: In File / Recent Files, it is possible to use the arrow keys to scroll up and down the list of recent files.

For Editor 3.0.307: In File / Open..., it is not possible to use the arrow keys to scroll up and down the list of recent files. It is necessary to use the mouse.

Is this intended?

Hi Victor,

Thanks for the post - I also see the same behaviour, but I don't know whether this is intended or is an oversight. I will have to ask the Dev. Team when they are in tomorrow and will post back with a response.

Cheers, I appreciate your patience here!

Do you have a response about this issue yet?

Hi Victor,

Will passes on his apologies for this taking so long to get an answer for. We are unlikely to get a definitive answer today but hope to be able to tell you tomorrow if this is planned to work like the Viewer did and if so when.

Without talking to the dev team I can tell you that we are not adding new features to the Editor for the next build as it is planned as a service build to address the things that have been sidelined in the push to migrate Viewer features to the Editor. I would expect this to be in the build following the service release so it may be a couple of months away yet.

We should have confirmation on this tomorrow.

FYI, On mine, V.307.2 if I click on File then place the mouse cursor over Open the the up and down keys scroll through the list.

Hi guys,

Thanks for the posts - this has already been implemented, so I would recommend downloading and running the following installer to update:
