Window Focus Functional Spec

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...)
