(In reply to V Stuart Foote from comment #2)
> Why?
Hopefully this will provide some clear purpose why the change…
Cleaning the LibreOffice code was criticised by some as a waste of time as it
did not provide any extra functionality; however, long term it was the right
decision…
Helping people over the phone, you can ask them to press Alt+H then the letter
‘A’; same as other creditable programs…
LibreOffice will be consistent with other programs with ‘A’ as the keyboard
shortcut for “About...”. Examples of the these programs:
Audacity http://www.audacityteam.org/
FileZilla https://filezilla-project.org/
Firefox https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/
GIMP https://www.gimp.org/
Microsoft Office
Nemo Linux Mint file manager
Thunderbird https://www.mozilla.org/thunderbird/
VLC https://www.videolan.org/
I’m sure you can find programs that do not have “A” as the keyboard shortcut;
however, it seems that creditable programs do use “A”…
Perhaps it is in the Human Interface Guidelines (HIG)…
Thank you
