Hello Everyone!

This is now available to all customers who aren’t on Release Tracks. Those on Release Tracks will gain this functionality shortly. We’ve also made the PgUp/PgDown and Home/End keys functional in the Issue View.

2. Select one of the results to view the issue
3. Press the Down/Up or Pg Down/Up keys.

Expected Results

Pressing the down/up or Pg Down/Up keys scrolls through the issue.

Actual Results

The Scroll container doesn't gain the focus when you click on it, unable to use the Keys to navigate.

Notes;

This also happens by simple opening an issue in the new issue view from other functions.

Workaround

• Reload the page.
• Use the tab key to select the area of the screen that you'd like to scroll at which point page up/page down will work.
