The chevron in a CTabFolder does not work properly when it is selected. When selected, a pop-up list appears but the user cannot type or use the cursor key to selected the items in the list. STEPS: - open a few editors - resize the sash until only one editor is visible and the chevron appears - select the editor Tab and press the Ctrl-tab until the editor tab is selected - press the right arrow key until the chevron has focus which will pop up a window VoiceOver will say, "Voice over On" - which is odd but then you cannot navigate and select the items that is in the pop up list of opened editors. Workaround: - use VoiceOver special keys to navigate to the list - OR press Tab a few times until the list gets focus
This is still true in Cocoa. Control-option-space should select the chevron, but it doesn't.
I stand corrected: control-shift-option-space clicks a button under the VoiceOver cursor. Using the steps described I can't reproduce the problem. Ctrl-tab gets me up to the CTabFolder items, and then right-arrow eventually selects the chevron. I can then use up/down arrow to select the items in the popup list. I also have no problems typing in the text field. Note that this is in Cocoa. I'm not planning to address this in Carbon, assuming it's still an issue there.
