The intended behaviour of the Move and Resize menu items was always that Space or Enter would confirm the action, and Esc would cancel it. I'd be loathe to document anything else, personally. I also notice that this section doesn't mention the effect of Shift on the arrow keys while moving/resizing ... perhaps it should? Holding Shift snaps the edge of the window being moved/resized to the nearest window edge in that direction, or to the edge of the desktop itself if no such window edge exists. I'm sure somebody else can word that better :) Cheeri, Calum. -- CALUM BENSON, Interaction Designer Oracle Corporation Ireland Ltd. mailto:[email protected] Solaris Desktop Team http://blogs.sun.com/calum +353 1 819 9771 Any opinions are personal and not necessarily those of Oracle Corp. _______________________________________________ gnome-doc-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-doc-list
