we are using topic command based on agenda doc, not agenda command

matt_king: some of issues need to be rebased because infrastruture has changed.
… I will do work on some of them next week.

jon: I had update on contributing page.

Supporting selects in treegrid cells

github:w3c/aria-practices#2741

jon: it does not do what documentation said.

Matt_King: you include one change to this PR in order to do that.

jongund: adding select to list and input type text.

github:w3c/aria-practices#2748

Matt_King: we asked jon to test PR 2741.
… PR 2741 will make the user stuck with adding select
… current tree grid example does not support select, edit inside of tree grid.
… the work scope of 2748 will be larger than 2741
… current approach - focus in the grid cell, choose the select, and so on. there is a lot of questions which are not answered here. How do you indicate how you escape the selection, how to indicate the focus is out.

jon: tab feature is working correctly as described the way the tab should work for now.

<CurtBellew> At Oracle we set the keyboard users focus on the gridcell when there is a text input for example. Enter or F2 sets focus in the input. Enter or F2 sets focus back to the gridcell

discussing arrow key behavior in select

arrow is trapped.

left and right arrow key is trapped in select

up and down arrow key are working but it put you in different select box.

Matt_King: may be 2741 is enough to support select

Matt_King: bryan mentioned that arrow works with browser supported.

Matt_King: what do you think about adding select to edit in the grid?

<jongund> https://deploy-preview-241--aria-practices.netlify.app/aria/apg/patterns/treegrid/examples/treegrid-1/

NVDA tells in which row and column I am unlike Jaws

<jongund> I have to leave a little early, good discussion

The discussion summary today will be added to 2741.

Matt_King: I have the direction for the select in the grid now after the discussion. This is great.
