Add users to Activities with keyboard

When creating performance coaching agendas or logging emails and adding external users in the timeline activity it's rather tedious to add users to Timeline Activities.  Currently, you have to search with a keyboard, then select the option with the mouse. It would be nice if the name could be selected by using Enter or arrow keys-enter right from the keyboard.

What is the existing workflow?

Search for a name, wait for the options to pop-up, then select with a mouse. Moving from keyboard to mouse for every name isn't efficient.

    Hi Angela,

    Thanks for the suggestion. Supporting the keyboard for selecting is in the near-term roadmap. It is already requested in this post.

    Thanks,
    Rajesh

    ​Hi All, this is fixed and available in October release. You are no longer required to switch to mouse/trackpad for selecting.

    Keyboard support while selecting Attendees, Accounts and Relationships in Global Timeline: When creating an activity and adding Internal/External Recipients or Attendees in Timeline Activities, you can now select the desired recipient’s/attendee’s name from the given list of options by using the arrow keys on the keyboard .

    Please refer the release notes for more information. 

    Thanks for posting!​
