Combobox Pattern

<jemma> mcb: this will speed up the publication
https://rawgit.com/w3c/aria-practices/combo-examples-1.1/aria-practices.html#combobox


mck: wants feedback from James and Bryan for "Does the description omit any important features?"

<jemma> https://github.com/w3c/aria-practices/issues/31

<mck> 1. The value for the textbox must be chosen from a predefined set of allowed values, e.g., a location field must contain a valid location name. Note that
<mck> the listbox and menu button patterns are also useful in this scenario; differences between combobox and alternative patterns are described below.
<mck> Combobox widgets are useful for setting the value of a single-line textbox in one of two types of scenarios:
<mck> 2. The textbox may contain any arbetrary value, but it is advantageous to suggest possible values to the user, e.g., a search field may suggest similar
<mck> or previous searches to save the user time.
<mck> When providing a compact widget that asks users to choose one value from a known set of discrete values, often either a
<mck> listbox
<mck> or
<mck> menu button
<mck> is simpler to implement and use. One feature of combobox that distinguishes it from both listbox and menu button is that the value of the combobox is
<mck> presented in an edit field. Thus, the combobox gives users one function that both listbox and menu button lack, namely the ability to select some or all
<mck> of the value for copying to the clipboard.
<jemma> ar·bi·trar·y
<jemma> siri: are we adding confusion by adding menu button pattern?
<jemma> mck: alternative pattern for combo box, menu item is like a list item, eg. menu item check box
<jemma> jongund: I have a good example of combo box. we can look into that.
Question: The description intentionally avoids the inherrantly confusing term "read-only combobox" to refer to a combobox restricted to a predefined set of values. Does the approach work?

<jemma> mck: I will just use it as "read only widget" for now
Question: Is the note about the ARIA 1.0 pattern adequate?

<jemma> Question: The keyboard interaction currently includes all single-line textbox keys partly because we do not have a textbox pattern. Should we keep it this way?
ARIA 1.0 pattern to come

<jemma> question:Is the proposed structure for the keyboard section good?
<jemma> mck: should we add textbox keyboard interaction here or just reference it when we have textbox keyboard interaction
<jemma> jemma: can we reuse existing keyboard pattern?
<jemma> mck: grid and tree may be possible
<jemma> mck: but there are some differences
<jemma> the biggest difference is char and back space, the same thing is down/up arrow but there is still some difference.
<jemma> mck: my original plan is using existing one but I found some difference
<jemma> I am not sure about reusing grid keyboard interaction yet.
<jemma> mck: using keyboard interaction for link may be possible but not sure about tree and grid. I will look into more.
