Hi! I love the new dock-style for the Documentation pane, but how can I scroll it using the keyboard? By now, I can only scroll it up & down with the mouse and the vertical scrollbar.

Thanks!

Currently the editor is automatically refocused after showing the documentation in the pane (otherwise the user would have to use the mouse or another way constantly to switch back to the editor). I understand that this (ironically) has the downside that it breaks keyboard scrolling.

I'm not really sure what a proper way would be to fix this and maintain the current convenience, so suggestions are welcome.

Adding special shortcuts for it could work, but that doesn't sound convenient either.

Datatips are much like our original tooltips, but they have a way to
become sticky, after which the user can drag them anywhere he wants
and also scroll through them. This pretty much removes the need for
a separate dock.

It also makes our UI consistent with that of other IDE packages and
allows us to benefit from UI and functionality improvements done in
atom-ide-ui itself.

Finally, this code is pretty much ready for use, except there are some
minor nitpicks in atom-ide-ui that I'd like ironed out before pushing
this in php-integrator:

  - facebookarchive/atom-ide-ui#99

Closing this as 3.2 has been released. In 3.2 the tooltips are now back in pop-ups using atom-ide-ui. They are scrollable using the mouse. If something about them still doesn't work properly, it is probably best to report it to atom-ide-ui instead, as them fixing it will fix it for all other IDE packages as well.
