Description Mikael Hallendal 2002-03-06 00:01:29 UTC 
This was moved from Yelp module in GNOME bugzilla: Issue #72690

When I start yelp the toc view is displayed.

If I press Tab Manual Pages is highlighted; if I press Tab, Manual Pages is
highlighted, If I then press Tab again Info pages is highlighted.

Even when a link is highlighted I have not found a way to activate a link
other than by clicking on it with the mouse.
Comment 1 padraig.obriain 2002-03-06 13:21:22 UTC 
I have a patch to implement activating a link by pressing space when
the link is highlighted.

Allow space to activate a link
Comment 3 Anders Carlsson 2002-03-06 13:46:29 UTC 
Yes, this looks good.

You can remove the GDK_Space keybinding altogether if they keynav
specs state that space should be use to activate links.
Comment 4 padraig.obriain 2002-03-06 14:30:18 UTC 
Checked with Calum that space is correct key to activate link.
