Hi. Since a few versions ago, been having an issue where after entering an aircraft, tabbing does not move to the list of possible aircraft types to choose from. I am unsure if this is a problem with the screenreader not detecting it, or if this has been removed from vpilot/no longer needed?

Thanks.

Hi Declan,

That is a change that I made intentionally. I found it frustrating that the tab key moves from the Aircraft Type field to the dropdown list. This is because most people (including myself) type in the correct code to begin with, and have no need to move the focus to the dropdown list. It is better to move the focus to the next field.

Can you use the down arrow key to move into the dropdown list?
