New Person Page - keyboard shortcuts

fbax

I tried the "New Person Page" today. First thing I notice is that when add/edit data; the home/end keys DO NOT WORK in all situations!!!

These keys do work properly when editing various fields related to NAME: they DO NOT WORK in fields related to EVENTS.

HOME key should move cursor to beginning of text box.

END key should move cursor to on of data in text box.

Hopefully someone can fix this soon. It's a real pain having to switch back and forth between keyboard and mouse when fixing typos in data items.

PLEASE provide a CONSISTENT user interface!!

You may want to share this issue in the group for the NEW Person Page

When I clicked Groups https://community.familysearch.org/en/categories/gp-groups-en and put "home key" in the search bar, I found this result that could be the same issue you are having.

Thanks MaileLoveland; I see the issue was already posted to the "New Person Page" group yesterday.

Although only HOME key is mentioned. I sent PM to author suggesting they also mention END key.

It's been over a year and despite two discussions posted about this issue; it seems no-one at Familysearch is interested in fixing this issue!
