Yes, I suspected that. I was taken by the placement of ToC. If I could, I would have it alongside Book browser - sometimes I undock it when I want to 'match' it to the Text files. BR |

I have prepared the relevant file for you. 1. exit Sigil. 2. make a backup of the sigil_v6.ini file just in case. 3. use a text editor. 4. open the file from the attachment and copy the line that starts with toolbars=@ByteArray (etc.). 5. find the appropriate place in your sigil_v6.ini file, namely the [mainwindow] section. 6. replace the existing line starting with toolbars with this one from the clipboard. 7. save file. Done! Now launch Sigil. Note: There is one 'crock'. If you change the layout of the windows you may not be able to go back to the one in the attachment.

Hi All,
For anyone who builds their own, master is now in a good testable place. So please give it a whirl and let us know what issues you see especially in these areas: 1. focus hightlight borders. Especially deeper inside some of the editors, reports, and other tools. 2. double width cursors, again especially deeper inside some of the editors, reports and other tools that accept keyboard input. 3. for keyboard lovers, please try playing with tab to shift focus inside each window (and now in Preview) and other places if this is something you regularly do. Also the new show/hide dockwidgets menus and focus move shortcuts and etc. 4. for macOS users, checking out what happens to Sigil when open and you shift the desktop from dark to light and light to dark. Especially on deeper tools and things. Would love to hear any issues related to these recent changes so we can get them working properly for everyone. Last edited by KevinH; 04-17-2024 at 06:27 AM. |

A new suggestion
Hi again,
To do a table in HTML is tedious. I edit technical books and I have to code a lot of boring tables. I spend too much time. I think it could be a good idea to add a button for programming HTML tables. I see examples here: https://www.tablesgenerator.com/html_tables https://www.codeguru.com/network/html-table-generator/ https://www.htmltables.io/ A button similar to List button would be very very useful. Again, thanks in advance. |

1. Validation Results does not have a focus frame
2. Preferences > Appearance > Preview a. Order for fonts (is now Serif, Standard, Sans-Serif) 3. Preferences > Plugins a. Plugins list is a trap for focus, Esc exits Preferences b. Plugins > Shortcuts (order in vertical) |

2. I have not touched anything to do with order for fonts in Preferences at all. What changed? I just checked and on my machine it shows Standard, Serif, then Sans-Serif. Perhaps a change you made? 3. Do You mean when using Tab to change focus in Manage plugins? Last edited by KevinH; 04-17-2024 at 08:54 AM. Reason: fixed point 1, point 2 works for me, |

I'm showing Standard, Serif, then Sans-Serif on my end too. No change in the order.

Ad 2. Order is ok. Focus order is bad.

@BeckyEbook,
I jut pushed a big cleanup for tab to shift focus in Manage Plugins. 1. First tab will take you to select Manage or Shortcuts with right and left arrow 2. If Manage then second tab will take you to the plugin table where you will have to use the up and down arrow keys to select the plugin 3. The next tabs will take you to the Add Button, Remove Button, and RemoveAll Button in sequence. 4. In the Shortcuts tab, the tab sequence will be by row jumping between QComboBoxes Hopefully that should be a big improvement. |

Okay it seems that the order of creation in the xml ui files determines the tab order (not where it is put in the grid layout).
So I simply shifted a few lines in PAppearanceWidget.ui and now the tab order matches the grid layout: Standard -> Serif -> SansSerif Pushed that to master. |

* Ad Plugins > Shortcuts
Focus should go sequentially from 1 to 10. * Preferences > Spellcheck Dictionaries > User Dictionaries > (Table) A similar problem to the plugin list. When the focus goes to the table with the dictionaries it no longer goes from there with Tab. |

So your 3 issues should all be fixed now in master.
If you do run into other tab to shift focus issues (except in SelectFiles dialog which is a focus mess due to the damn QWebEngineView being involved), please do let me know. Thanks! |
