Summary

Adds an option to change the <Tab> key behavior while editing details within the task modal.

Option behavior:

  • Enabled (default): Jump to the next input field within the task modal
  • Disabled: Regular <Tab> key behavior (e.g. indent checklist items)
demo.mp4

Motivation

I want to press <Tab> to indent checklist items. Pressing <Tab> and experiencing an input focus switch induces tragedy beyond all comprehension to me. I suffer utter pain and pure anguish when looking at the non-indented checklist item. Nine generations of poweruser ancestors gaze shameful upon me when I have to refocus the editing section manually with my mouse.

Implementation Details

  • Adds the setting switchFocusOnTab in the "Feature" tab in the "Inline Tasks" section
  • Translations (except German & English) were machine translated

Make the current Tab key behavior of focusing the next input field in the details part of the task modal toggleable.
When this option is disabled, pressing Tab triggers the default behavior (e.g. indenting checkbox items)
