             Bug #: 47119
           Summary: CONFIGURATION: assign F3 to Edit-Repeat Search as
                    default, at least for Calc
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: LibO 3.5.0 Release
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
 Status Whiteboard: BSA
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: UI
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [email protected]


Problem description: 
The KDE shortcut for Find Again/Find Next is F3, and it's also the shortcut in
many Windows programs and cross-platform programs like Firefox. LO Calc doesn't
seem to assign F3 to anything else, so this seems needless inconsistency.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Bring up LO Calc
2. Ctrl-F to search for something.
3. Press F3.

Current behavior:
Nothing happens.

Expected behavior:
Pressing F3 should perform Find Next, or as LO calls it "Repeat Search".
I see Writer assigns F3 to "Run Autotext Entry", so maybe only assign F3 in LO
programs that don't assign it elsewhere.

To fix this I went in to Tools > Customize > Keyboard > LibreOffice and added
F3 as Edit > Repeat Search. But it didn't take in Calc, I had to add it in
Tools > Customize > Keyboard > Calc.

According to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Table_of_keyboard_shortcuts , Gnome's
shortcut for Go to next search result is Ctrl+G, so maybe also add that as
another shortcut, though it's often used as a "Go to (page/whatever)" shortcut.
