These look really good... just a couple of comments inline. > Function Mozilla Outlook Proposed > Turn on/off caret mode F7 always on F7 Is there a good reason why Evolution shouldn't do the same as Outlook here, and just have this feature turned on all the time? F7 is kind of an obscure shortcut, and you'd probably want to add a menu item and/or a preference for this setting as well if it was optional. So it would be nice if it just always worked, if that didn't cause any other problems. (Perhaps you should also ask about this particular feature on gnome-accessibility-list, there may be other issues with it I'm not aware of). > Go to the same day in the previous/next week in day/week/month view. > Alt + Left Arrow / Right Arrow > Go to the first/last day of the current week in day/week/month view. > Alt + Home / End > Go to the first/last day of the current month in day/week/month view. > Alt + PageUp / PageDown > Go to the same day in the previous/next week in day/week/month view. > Alt + Left Arrow / Right Arrow > Go to the first/last day of the current week in day/week/month view. > Alt + Home / End I realise you're trying to follow the Outlook shortcuts here. But just as a side-note, using Ctrl instead of Alt would probably be a more HIG-compliant solution for these shortcuts, if they're not already used for something else. I guess that's a decision for whoever decides how much you need to copy the Outlook shortcuts though :) > Switch to month view > Alt + Equal Sign (=) / m > Switch to week view > Alt + Hypen Sign (-) / k > Switch to working week view > Alt + r > Switch to day view > Alt + y Again, I know you're copying Outlook here, but just be aware that the GNOME HIG suggests that Alt+<symbol> shouldn't generally be used for shortcuts, only for label mnemonics. Ctrl and Ctrl+Shift are the preferred modifiers for shortcuts.
