[Question] - How to set pointer index and highlight?

[scorphious]

Hi @shentao, thanks a lot for your awesome component!

TLDR: How to set pointer value or call out "setPointer" externally?

Currently its triggered on-mouseover or when pressing up-down arrows for example. But what if the dropdown is open and you press "End" key on keyboard, it would scroll to the end of selections and then should set the pointer index on the last item, so pressing "End" and then "up arrow" would highlight and set active (active, not selected) the item before the last for example.

I managed to attach infinity scroll to your component and made it so that end-home btns scroll to start/end (to trigger loading more) and using arrows right after would make it really keyboardly-accessible. Currently scrolling last item in dropdown to view programmatically and pressing arrows will still increment the index from the last state, in this case the first item in the list, although Im already seeing the last items since I scrolled there but didnt mouseover yet.
I dont want to change the "selected" value, just mentioning.

What do you think - could this be possible or is it currently ?

Once again - you awesome, bruh.

Hey!
This is sadly not possible with v2. It might be possible with v3. You can take a look at the v3 branch and the roadmap #963 to see the progress on the new version.
