There are two keyboard shortcuts that do not conform to standards. It is important that you are aware of these deviations from the standard action so you are aware of the Maximo® Asset Management UI response.
UI element | Standard action | Standard UI response | Maximo Asset Management UI response |
---|---|---|---|
Radio buttons | To move between radio buttons, press the Right and Left arrows. | The radio buttons are selected as the user moves though them. | The radio buttons are highlighted but not selected as the user moves through them. A radio button is selected only when the user presses Spacebar or Enter on the highlighted radio button. |
Tree view | To select a node, press Enter. | When the user presses Enter, the default action is performed for a node. | Nodes might have 0, 1 or 2 actions. If a node has 2 actions and a user has navigated to an element by using the arrows, when the user presses Enter the default action is performed. When the user presses Enter a second time, the secondary action is performed. |
