Description Claudio Guglielmo

If the user navigates to a table or tree by pressing tab, he won't be able to select any item by keyboard if no item is selected yet. If there is already an item selected it works fine.

We fixed this on our fork as follows: https://github.com/BSI-Business-Systems-Integration-AG/rap/commit/e94220c1eb726f7144b94c19ec67d63a36b5e5bf

Actually, this is the same behavior as in SWT. You need the focus item to be set (by click on the table or Table#setSelection call) in order to use the keyboard navigation.

With swt it works fine. As soon as the table gets the focus, a focus indicator is drawn on the first element in the table. If I then press arrowDown, the second element gets selected, see screenshot.

With rap it does not, see here: http://rap.eclipsesource.com/controlsdemo/controls#TableViewer
