What would be wrong with only considering overriding, especially when a shortcut can be overridden with an empty shortcut (which in effect means unbind). > 1.

Is there a real need for removing bindings? If the changed (additional) bindings are shown in bold, one can click on some 'reset' button to revert this entry to the default (or remove it). Wouldn't that be simple enough? Or maybe what we want to do is to have the shortcuts in the first column (index everything by shortcut). The unbound functions (that are here only to help) could be put after the bound ones. > As usual, I tend to make things complicated.

Yes, anyway color-coding of UI is known to be bad: some people do not see colors correctly. A few remarks in no particular order: When opening the prefs dialog, it says: QLayout::addChildWidget: lyx::frontend::ShortcutEdit "shortcutLE" in wrong parent; moved to correct parent Also I get several PreferencesPolicy: No transition for input SMI_RESTORE from state INITIAL when the dialog loses/gains focus. If I restrict the display with the search feature, the contents is lost whe n the mouse goes out of the prefs window (I use focus follows mouse). BTW, it would be nice if the search field did some 'search-as-you-type'. Actually, we could get rid of the search button. The shortcut editor does not work for me: when I type for example C-o in the binding, only 'C-' appears. Afterwards in the list I see a weird char. I just tried this again and got a 'Error: Failed to create shortcut' dialog. After that, New always brings up a dislog without function name. JMarc
