Tab between Project Properties fields
Would be nice to be able to tab down (shift-tab up) through the project properties dialog box. Currently each text field must be physically clicked in to add/change/remove text.

Use the Up or Down arrow to move between the fields. Sadly, it doesn't work for the Copyright field. :-(

Up/down changes values in most selections. It's not good practice to mix navigation and editing.

That's what some of us have been telling the MuseScore developers. But they are holding to some non-standard "standard" for Accessibility. You will find that most dialogs don't use Tab properly to move from field to field. When you do, try Up, Down, Left, or Right. :-( One/some of them will usually work. (And then there are the exceptions like the "Copyright" field that apparently you cannot get out of without mousing, no matter what.)

Where did they say that?

Great deal of discussion about the new Accessibility standard some time ago: last summer? longer ago? I still have not seen any source (either here at MuS or elsewhere) describing this "standard", though I asked for it repeatedly at the time.

If you press ESC while in the Copyright field, then you can use Up/Down to move beyond it. :)

Thanks for that. Personally, seems a mildly bizarre choice to me. Arrow keys are usually reserved for moving around within an element, correct? I think most people's muscle memory would default to using tab to navigate between form fields. Maybe there is a GNOME designer on board? ;)
