When you've got lots of hidden resources (as I do: much of the Perseus collection, for example) and you're trying to get to one title to unhide it, this listbox doesn't behave like other ones, in that you can't just type the first letter of a title and get the listbox to scroll down to the titles that begin with that letter. Please make it work that way. Scrolling a page at a time, or trying to guess where that letter is and dragging the scroll thumb, in that tiny listbox, is inconvenient.
Steps to repro:
- Open Hidden Resources list
- Click to highlight any of the visible titles (to bring the focus into the listbox)
- Press any letter of the alphabet.
Result: Nothing happens
Expect: List box to scroll to the place in the listbox where titles beginning with that letter start
I'm trying to figure out whether this is a systemic problem in Logos (possibly by design, but I don't like the design as it's inconsistent with how all other Windows apps work). There aren't many true list boxes that I can find. Most of them have the Find box at the top so I can't test this behavior, but one other one I found that also behaves this way, not a simple listbox but a dropdown list, is in the Copy Bible Verses panel: the dropdown for selecting the program to prepare the clipboard contents for. You can't type the first letter there to navigate in the list or select a unique option either. If this behavior isn't a universal design decision across the Logos Windows UI, then this latter is a bug, too.
