[STR New] Link: http://www.fltk.org/str.php?L2243 Version: 1.3-current andek: Re #2: No, STR #2199 only wanted the Alt modifier to trigger the button shortcuts, not Shift (or regular keys). There are many good reasons for not wanting that, since it means a user doing regular typing might accidentally trigger button shortcuts. (eg. if the user thought they were typing in an input field, but the input field didn't have focus at the time..) Example: An interface to control industrial machinery that has two buttons, &Start and &All Stop., and an input field. A user wants to type the word "Sally" into the input field, but forgets to give the input field focus; The 'S' and 'a' in 'Sally' would trigger both the "Start" and "All Stop" buttons accidentally, starting and stopping the machinery unexpectedly. As STR#2199 reads (OP): Shift+letter activates button/label shortcuts, same as alt+letter. [..] I have never before used shift as activation key for shortcuts in any program. Also: there is also a follow up in that STR comparing linux and windows behavior of button shortcuts, using Firefox's own behavior as an example, showing letter codes don't work for buttons in windows, but do in linux: http://fltk.org/newsgroups.php?gfltk.general+v:28192 Link: http://www.fltk.org/str.php?L2243 Version: 1.3-current _______________________________________________ fltk-bugs mailing list [email protected] http://lists.easysw.com/mailman/listinfo/fltk-bugs
