I don't have OOo installed to test these out, but here are a couple of things that have been bugging me about NO/J the past few weeks:
1. Calc - the Modify Data Range dialogue (control click an inserted chart in a spreadsheet, but not in the editing mode) doesn't respond to a Return key press to "Create" and instead you have to manually click the Create button.
2. Writer/Calc - doesn't respond to page/line up/down key presses to move the object when you have a graphic/chart highlighted.
Cheers,
Jonathan
(Again, I haven't been doing any rigourous testing, but NO/J 0.8.2 patch 3 has otherwise been working flawlessly for me - it also runs a bit better on my new PB than it did on the iMac but it remains a huge RAM hog...). _________________ PBG4, 1.5GHz, SuperDrive, 1GB RAM, 128MB VRAM, 5400rpm 80GB HD, MacOS X 10.4.5
I just tried both cases in OOo 1.0.3 (I always have a copy so that I can make sure that NeoJ behaves the same as OOo 1.0.3) and, unfortunately, the same behavior occurs in OOo 1.0.3 for both cases.
1. Calc - the Modify Data Range dialogue (control click an inserted chart in a spreadsheet, but not in the editing mode) doesn't respond to a Return key press to "Create" and instead you have to manually click the Create button.
This one works in 1.1.1b. (you're talking about tabbing through the options and pressing return right?)

This also works in 1.1.1b, at least the line up/down does, page up page down doesn't (but I wouldn't guess that it would).

Actually, I was talking about selecting the default by pressing enter, but I just noticed that this isn't in fact "Create" and is instead a greyed out "Next" (as it doesn't and can't do anything) so it shouldn't work anyway.
As for the page/up etc. I was mixing two different things in together there:
1. Charts and other objects can't be moved by pressing the inverted T keys (which I guess now works in 1.1.1 from what you post?)
2. Page up/down and line up/down don't work to scroll the actual page in Calc. _________________ PBG4, 1.5GHz, SuperDrive, 1GB RAM, 128MB VRAM, 5400rpm 80GB HD, MacOS X 10.4.5
