Expanding a closed section using keyboard

[Isomorphic]

We have made a change which we believe will resolve this issue for you (the change will be present in nightly builds dated July 18 2012 and greater, in the 3.1d SmartGWT branch and the 8.3d SmartClient branch).

Once you have the new code you should be able to use the space bar to both open and close the section when focus is on the header.

Please let us know if this doesn't fix it for you.

Hello,

I seem to be unable to find a key which expands a closed section item using the keyboard. The focus is clearly visible in the section header but regardless of the key I try (I assume space or enter needs to do the trick) the section never gets expanded.

We are on SNAPSHOT_v8.3d_2012-07-03/Pro Deployment (built 2012-07-03).

This behavior can be illustrated with the following sample.

	public Canvas getViewPanel() {
		
        final DynamicForm form = new DynamicForm();  
        form.setWidth(300);
        form.setAutoFocus(true);
        form.setCanTabToSectionHeaders(true);
        
        TextItem firstItem = new TextItem();  
        firstItem.setName("itemName");  
        firstItem.setTitle("Item");  
          
        TextItem itemName = new TextItem();  
        itemName.setName("itemName");  
        itemName.setTitle("Item");  
  
        TextAreaItem descriptionItem = new TextAreaItem();  
        descriptionItem.setName("descriptionItem");  
        descriptionItem.setTitle("Description");  
  
        TextItem priceItem = new TextItem();  
        priceItem.setType("float");  
        priceItem.setName("priceItem");  
        priceItem.setTitle("Price");  
        priceItem.setDefaultValue("low");  
  
        SectionItem section1 = new SectionItem();  
        section1.setDefaultValue("Item");  
        section1.setSectionExpanded(false);  
        section1.setItemIds("itemName", "descriptionItem", "priceItem");  
        
        CheckboxItem inStock = new CheckboxItem();  
        inStock.setName("inStock");  
        inStock.setTitle("In Stock");  
          
        DateItem nextShipment = new DateItem();  
        nextShipment.setName("nextShipment");  
        nextShipment.setTitle("Next Shipment");  
        nextShipment.setUseTextField(true);  
        nextShipment.setDefaultValue(256);  
          
        SectionItem section2 = new SectionItem();  
        section2.setDefaultValue("Stock");  
        section2.setSectionExpanded(false);  
        section2.setItemIds("inStock", "nextShipment");  
        
        form.setFields(firstItem, section1, itemName, descriptionItem, priceItem, section2, inStock, nextShipment);  
  
        form.draw();
        
        return form;
	}

Can you please advise on how I can tackle this one?
