Oracle Logon - Database field minor enhancement

[Worker]

Try out the following:

• Open the Oracle Logon dialog
• Click the arrow on the Database dropdown field to show the list
• Click the arrow again to hide the list
• Use the up/down arrow keys

You will notice that, even though the list is hidden, you are moving through the list.

Now try this:

• Open the Oracle Logon dialog
• Click in the Database dropdown field text
• Use the up/down arrow keys

You will notice that "up" does nothing and "down" brings you to the start of the list.

I would like it if the arrow keys worked the same in the second scenario as they do in the first.

Both situations work the same for me: the up/down keys work as expected and navigate through the list.

If I take the following steps, the up/down keys don't work as expected:

• Start PL/SQL Developer
• Session->Log On...
• Using the drop-down, pick any database other than the top-most and bottom-most ones.
• Fill out the user info and connect
• Close PL/SQL Developer
• Start PL/SQL Developer
• Session->Log On...
• (the name of the database you picked before is shown in the Database field)
• Click in the password field
• Press the Tab key
• Press the Down key

If my list of databases includes: alpha, dev1, dev2, dev3, and the database field shows "dev2", the down key doesn't take me to "dev3", but rather takes me to "alpha".

(I am one revision behind the latest: 7.1.5.1397. Not sure if that matters.)

Okay, I can indeed reproduce this. We'll fix it.
