footprint browser UI: up-down keys does not browse the list items anymore (GTK-specific?)

[Dino Ghilardi]

In footprint library browser when you select a footprint and pres up/down cursor keys the cursor moves to the footprint frame and scrolls the graphic area.

In stable version with up-down cursor keys you where able to select the next-previous item in the footprint list.

Launching the footprint library browser from eeschema or pcbnew gives the same results.

Tested after a git pull, make clean, make.

Cheers, Dino.

Still works on OSX. GTK-specific?

[Wayne Stambaugh (stambaughw)]

Definitely happens for me so it may be GTK specific. I haven't tested it on MSW.

I'm not seeing this problem in the footprint library browser any more but it definitely is still an issue in the symbol library browser.

@Wayne- The symbol viewer should be fixed now as well.
