Issue Summary
This is an inconsistency in the new editor with different behavior between Jira and Confluence, where the Up and Down arrows are scrolling horizontally between columns rather than vertically in Jira but still scroll vertically in Confluence, the behavior started with an update sometime in late November
Steps to Reproduce
- Add a table to a text field such as a comment in Jira
- Use up and down arrows to navigate
Expected Results
The cursor position moves vertically in the direction of the arrow key used
Actual Results
The cursor moved left when selecting the Up arrow key and right when selecting the Down arrow key
Workaround
Currently, there is no known workaround for this behavior. A workaround will be added here when available

[JRACLOUD-77976] Using up and down Arrow keys on a table scrolls horizontally
243d50960bcd Thank you for re-flagging this previously. You're correct, this was resolved on 21 December 2021 but we didn't communicate the resolved status of the ticket and I apologise for that. I'll be marking this ticket as closed now, but will flag the missed comms issue with our team (cc: db21f2b0b394).
It is disappointing that this is a Low priority - its clearly a bug that you have introduced as it has only recently changed and it affects every single story I create (which is dozens a day) I cannot find any alternative keyboard shortcut and so it is affecting the speed and flow of my work. It seems we now have 3 ways to move to the next column (tab, right arrow, down arrow) but no way to go down other than tabing multiple times though the columns or using the mouse. Not the end of the world but extremely time consuming when one is used to speeding through tasks using keyboard shortcuts.
Please consider raising the priority of this ticket
It looks like this bug is there again, at least for Confluence
