Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: IDLE Group: Python 2.5 Status: Open Resolution: None >Priority: 7 Submitted By: Jim Jewett (jimjjewett) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: broken shortcut keys Initial Comment: Idle menu entries can include a "_" indicating to use that character for a keyboard shortcut. Because Typing the key actually runs the shortcut (instead of just moving along the menu), there is no way to use the same shortcut on more than one entry -- listing it just misleads people into accidentally requesting the wrong command. Unfortunately, the default configuration does this for the File menu. It claims that Alt-f-p will save a copy as and print, but it actually just opens a path browser. This change (1) Uses the y key for save Cop_y (2) Stops pretending to have a key for print. I'll trust someone else's judgement on whether this is a bugfix (the advertised shortcuts don't work) or a feature (particularly the new binding for copy). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Jim Jewett (jimjjewett) Date: 2006-08-15 15:57 Message: Logged In: YES user_id=764593 Changing priority to 7 because I consider it a bug, but am reluctant to push GUI changes after release. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=305470&aid=1540874&group_id=5470 _______________________________________________ Patches mailing list Patches@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/patches
