Better keyboard support in Graphics Builder

A lot of potential Graphics Builder tasks can be repetitive, and can be sped up using a keyboard instead of a mouse. But some dialogues are not keyboard friendly.

The specific case I have in mind is Tools -> Swap Colours. Opening it from the keyboard is easy (Alt-L, S) but whilst you can OK the dialogue by hitting ENTER you can't do anything much besides that without using the mouse. For example TAB doesn't move you around the dialogue in a useful way, and there's no way to select new from/to colours without using a mouse.

However there are surely other places where the keyboard has been forgotten (feel free to comment the ones that affect you). This idea is broader than one specific example, it's to give due consideration to all GB functions with a view to making them accessible with a keyboard wherever feasible, making repetitive tasks quicker for all users as well as easier to automate for power users.

Idea business value

My own use case: Several hundred images, easy of which needs to be saved in 6 colour variations, one of which is a flashing colour. A way to automate Swap Colours would reduce the labour required massively which also improving consistency and accuracy.

    As an integrator we have a lot of projects in the plant scada studio.

    If you click on a letter it should jump to the first project in the list who's name starts with this letter.

    That was something that works with the older citect versions in the explorer but not anymore in plant scada studio.
