--- Comment #2 from Rafael Lima <[email protected]> --- (In reply to V Stuart Foote from comment #1) > The accelerators <Alt>+N are already common and localized for Draw & Impress > New page/slide This does not work for me. Alt+N in Draw does nothing. > While I'm all for consistency, in reality the Shortcut <Ctrl>+M for new > Slide in Impress is at odds with its use for Clear Direct Formatting, which > elsewhere is <Ctrl>+M but in Impress is forced to <Ctrl>+<Shift>+M. Why not > make the shortcut for New Slide the <Ctrl>+<Shift>+M? This is a good compromise. At least we would have an accelerator for New Page in Draw. > So where did the <Ctrl>+M shortcut originate that it is the New Slide > shortcut? I believe in Impress the shortcut Ctrl+M is used for compatibility with MS PowerPoint, which also uses Ctrl+M for New Slide. > Maybe use another available shortcut? The one that makes more sense would be Ctrl+Shift+M, as you suggested. > Otherwise a can of worms, "no changes for change sake". I don't think this request is about "changes for change sake". If Ctrl+M turns out to not be a good idea, we should use something as shortcut for the New Page command. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
