Does anyone know how to navigate between preference panes of apps on macOS using the keyboard?
I tried to highlight the toolbar buttons and moving the focus works, but selecting the focused pane by, e.g., pressing Space only gives the error sound.
Seems like an obvious thing to do...

@fhe Weird that this wouldn’t work! Maybe it varies by app? I’d love it if you could switch panes using the standard tab shortcuts (e.g. ⌃⇥ and ⌃⇧⇥), it just feels right to me

@fhe You have to enable keyboard navigation in the keyboard system settings. This way you can also use tab and space to select buttons in dialogs.
