I mean all windows with list but primarily this:
- vehicle groups list (moving between groups), this is ideal for check profit (ADDED: moving groups with cursor and scrolling vehicles with mouse (scrolling working already now))
- new/replace engine/wagon list (faster is pushing cursor down than click with mouse and scroll), this is ideal for comparing engine parameters

I also tried to quickly compare different vehicles or trains with the up and down arrow keys.
It's just a habit to use the arrow keys because it's available in many applications.

I made a patch to manage trains/vehicles/ships/aircrafts lists.
As well as the build of these engines.

The window must have the focus to work well.
The scrolling of the main map area works if the focused window is NOT trains/vehicles/... list or build list.

The news/tooltips windows are not considered for this focus.

I like the idea but I don't like the implementation. I think this should be handled at the matrix or scrollbar level, some how.

How does one know the window has focus? There is no concept of UI feedback about currently focussed window.

Hasn't moved since 2014. We can pass on this. Closing, thanks.
