Oh /me embarrassed. Going the change the scope of this to an enhancement of the
Sheet-Tabs-Bar rather than just => NAB for buttons that do work.
Just realized my OP is just wrong as the Sheet "Tabs" Navigation bar is only
active when the number of Sheet tabs exceeds the LO frame width. When all sheet
tabs are in view the movement button have no action.
That is to say the First, Previous, Next, and Last buttons on the Sheet Tab
are *always* visible and show tool tips "scroll to..." which suggests they can
be used to navigate from sheet to sheet.
But in fact they only reposition the bar full of Sheet tabs--and have that
function all the way back to OOo. No impact on the sheet with cursor focus, so
not really movement controls.
So, enhancement would be to make these prominent buttons actually able to move
cursor focus between the sheets. Imagine they'll need UNO created to support
Keyboard assignment/customization.
Enable focus movements by default, but probably would need ability to disable
should a user find it too uncomfortable to their work flow.
@quikee, erack - appreciate your dev perspective on if this overloading would
cause issues.
