I am thinking to a visual transition effect to avoid the "jumping" window size. The file chooser opens by expanding vertically, and closes by collapsing vertically. For Gnote, when selecting a note, the main window could collapse vertically, then open the note by expanding horizontally. Then we don't really see the change in width/height.

Ctrl-1/2 work AFTER you opened the toc once (because after that the menu accelerator takes over the keypress event) Ctrl-Alt-1 never work (it relies only on the keypress event) Also Ctrl-0 which used to reset the font size does not work any more Did you remove it? > > >> What are the development plans for 3.10, or further? > > Primarly UI polishing and small issues all over the place.
