A method and system are described of providing for keyboard navigation of a displayable representation of connectable objects. According to an exemplary embodiment, a method of providing for keyboard navigation of a displayable representation of connectable objects includes assigning keystrokes to provide for separately traversing a plurality of connectable objects included in the displayable representation, a plurality of connectors associated with an object, and a link between respective connectors of a pair of connected objects. Each traversal proceeds according to a respective predetermined sequence. The method includes detecting one of the assigned keystrokes. A location cursor is associated with one element of the group of objects, connectors, and link based on an existing association of the location cursor with one of the elements when the keystroke is detected and the predetermined sequence associated with the detected keystroke.
