[Bug 913612] Re: Dash - Pressing "Page Down/Page Up" does not work in Dash

 

This bug was fixed in the package unity - 7.3.2+15.10.20150522-0ubuntu1

---------------
unity (7.3.2+15.10.20150522-0ubuntu1) wily; urgency=medium

  [ CI Train Bot ]
  * New rebuild forced.

  [ Chris Townsend ]
  * Add necessary signaling to set the BFB icon's tooltip and the Home
    Scope's default search string to accurately reflect if searching
    online is enabled or disabled in unity-system-settings. (LP:
    #1202160, #1101662)
  * Enable real page up/page down key navigation in the Dash. When using
    these keys the view scrolls the length of the visible view. (LP:
    #913612)
  * If Spread/Expo is active, then terminate it when entering Launcher
    keynav mode. (LP: #1447810)
  * If dragging an application:// uri type from the Dash to the desktop,
    change it to a file:// uri type so Nautilus can understand the type
    a make a copy of it on the desktop. (LP: #1241972)
  * Wait on Spread to be terminated before showing the Quicklist. (LP:
    #1441626)

  [ Luke Yelavich ]
  * Implement scope bar icon accessibility (LP: #1457073)

  [ Marco Trevisan (Treviño) ]
  * ResultViewGrid: wait for double-click event only if the relative
    result needs the Preview (LP: #1447372, #1291950)

Title:
  Dash - Pressing "Page Down/Page Up" does not work in Dash

Status in Ayatana Design:
  Fix Committed
Status in Unity:
  In Progress
Status in Unity 7.2 series:
  Triaged
Status in unity package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  
  When trying to page down or page up in the Dash it never works.

  Steps to reproduce:
  1.) press Super+A
  2.) expand the "Installed" category so that all installed applications are viewable, resulting in lots of rows of icons
  3.) press the "Page Down" key with the intention of advancing the view of icons down one page. Nothing happens. The "page down" key will not move the view down one page.

  Please make it so that "Page Down" and "Page Up" work in the dash so
  users can use these keys when looking at lots and lots of icons.

  
  --------------------------------------------------
  Desired Solution:

  - When the Dash is open the PAGE UP and PAGE DOWN keys should scroll
  the Dash up and down.

  (note this behaviour was specified in section "2.4.2.2 Keyboard
  navigation" of the original Dash spec.
