But, should it have an alias of <Ctrl>+D and <Alt>+S? So not really a bug, but I am marking this an enhancement issue, and setting UX-Advise whiteboard. LibreOffice already provides a robust set of keyboard accelerators distinct from those provided by the Microsoft Office products, and expanded with its cumbersome Ribbon GUI implementation from Office 2007 onward. Keyboard accelerators are not agreed to or set by any standard, but reasonable accommodations in interest of interoperability/common use are certainly possible to adopt for LibreOffice UX. But how far to take it and for what use case? Obviously we are not under any obligation to replicate Microsoft's choices, but we do have to be consistent in the keyboard user interface, and ensure that we provide needed capabilities--both for efficient keyboard input, and for support to Assistive Technologies. =-=-= These help articles cover state of LibreOffice keyboard accelerators. https://help.libreoffice.org/Writer/Shortcut_Keys_for_Writer https://help.libreoffice.org/Writer/Using_Shortcut_Keys_Writer_Accessibility https://help.libreoffice.org/Common/Shortcuts_Accessibility =-=-= And these MS help articles cover the keyboard shortcuts for the Office products http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290938 http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/word-help/keyboard-shortcuts-for-microsoft-word-HA102748895.aspx -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- You are receiving this mail because: a..
