A few Rules:
- Floaters handle all keystrokes when focused.
- Ctrl-Tab and Tab will get you (almost) anywhere.
- Ctrl-Tab cycles through floaters, toolbars, etc. Floaters are cycled in the order they were opened.
- Ctrl-Enter to chat, enter to trigger current item/activate default button, or if nothing is selected, brings up chat for backwards compatibility.
- Shift-Enter to shout.
- Hitting TAB when nothing has focus goes to chat bar, if available.
- Opening a floater automatically puts focus there.
- Focused floaters have opaque backgrounds, blue borders, and lightened title bars; unfocused floaters are transparent.
- Clicking in world (or hitting ESC) will remove focus from the UI, and make all floaters transparent.
- Alt key access to menus. Hold down Alt and navigate via the underlined letters.
- Visual integration of context-sensitive controls with the bottom panel.
- Improved focus behavior of notifications and group notifications, and their appearance.
- Visual feedback on matching letters when typing in combo boxes.
- "Cone of context" for color pickers
- Objects visually lose focus when application loses focus, and regain them when application is refocused
- Storage of last focused item in floaters, so that focusing a floater puts focus back where it was last time you were using it.
- Mini-map can't take focus, nor can camera/movement controls
- Double-click on the mini-map will open the main map.
- Mousewheel zooms on the mini-map, and the scale limits allow you to zoom in more.
- Improvements to type-ahead find in combo and list boxes. (checking what this means...)
- IM tabs opened by you are added to the right of the open tab.
- Removed tab characters from most text editors. (checking what this means...)
