--- Comment #8 from Mike Kaganski <mikekagan...@hotmail.com> --- (In reply to libretist from comment #7) The proposal here is based on the status *prior* to bug 158112. You may recall, that you wrote bug 158786 as a "regression": before the assignment of Alt+Number to sidebar panels, you could normally use the ALT+168 combination, and get what you expected. As explained in comment 0, the *combinations starting with 0 or greater than 255* weren't processed correctly. Values below 256 were processed using Windows WM_CHAR message, which contains a resulting character value, but only truncated. So the whole text there discussed how to enable *also* greater values. Then comment 3 (not mine) could confuse people, because it suggested this proposal as a "solution" to bug 158112 (which is it not, and can't be). As you noted in bug 158112 comment 22, even Alt+single_digit is a useful special character combination. But in any case, before writing things like "Many characters ... are not handled by your method", one needs to make sure they understand what they object to. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
