Hello, forum!
I was directed here by Alexey Torgashin, the developer of cudatext, an incredibly responsive and helpful fellow, BTW, after posting a couple of feature requests for cudatext UI at GitHub. Alexey told me these are [or should be] implemented by the Lazarus LCL Library, hence this — my first — post, to present these ideas of mine and ask for your thoughts.
Easy to possibly ground-breaking, then:
#6008
Arrows do not cycle among Dialogue Buttons
https://github.com/Alexey-T/CudaText/issues/6008Cycling among dialogue buttons with
Up or
Down arrows is not possible, only
Left and
Right are usable to
just move [NOT CYCLE!] back and forth [while cycling using
TAB/SHIFT+TAB works as expected].
I consider this a shortcoming [the more the keyboard options, the better!], might as well be considered a feature request — your call!
#6009
cudatext should respond to
ALT+KeyCodes instead of
ALT+Lettershttps://github.com/Alexey-T/CudaText/issues/6009Actually,
ALL applications should be responsive to
ALT+KeyCodes [according to Interface Language & Keyboard Layout] instead of
ALT+Letters!
Examples:
- if system/cudatext interface language is English, I expect ALT+Φ [that is, even when I have switched to Greek keyboard layout] to pull the file menu down, as well as ALT+F [instead of hearing the distracting — and extremely annoying! — system notification “Ding” sound, telling me I did something wrong!]
- ALT+Ω, ς = ALT+V, w [toggle soft word wrap]
This is already the case when key bindings are used, for example
CTRL+Θ =
CTRL+U!
