Type enter when adding Timeline attendees

I think it would be a better UX if users could type enter after searching for an attendee. Not a huge deal but having to type a name, then click the name to add it is just one extra step vs. typing enter without leaving the keyboard.

    I'll second this. An added UI improvement would be to allow you to use the arrow keys to select the correct contact if the search results returned multiple matches. Basically anything that can keep the hands in the keyboard home position is a win here. It's also pretty standard UI experience in other apps that offer search results (use arrow keys to highlight and enter to select).

    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!​
