In the latest beta of BIAB, hitting control+F9 does open the Style Picker as it should, however, this behavior has changed since BIAB 2024.

In BIAB 2025, when hitting control+F9 the Style Picker opens, but focus remains in the main BIAB dialog (either the Chord or Notation window).

Several users of JAWS have commented to me that they didn't think the control+F9 hotkey was working since they were not brought to the Style Picker dialog. although the sighted person will see that this dialog has opened, that is not readily apparent to someone using a screen reder.

Suggestion: If we can revert to the previous behavior where hitting control+F9 would automatically put the focus in the Style Picker, the issue would be resolved.

Thanks.

Hi Pete,

The StylePicker now opens in the floating MultiPicker window by default. This behavior is controlled by the "Use MultiPicker instead of dialogs" option in the Edit menu. If you disable this menu option, selecting "Load Style From StylePicker" from the File menu (or pressing Alt+F to open the File menu and then the D key to select the "Load Style From StylePicker" command) will open the modal StylePicker. Pressing the S Enter keys also opens it. However, for some reason, Ctrl+F9 opens the floating MultiPicker. We will report this. In the meantime, please disable "Use MultiPicker instead of dialogs" in the Edit menu and use the S Enter keys to open the modal StylePicker.

Actually, I hope that both StylePicker and realtrack in the past can become floating windows, just like Bar setting has become a separate floating window.
