UHE->FT: Please have a look, thanks ! correcting target. 1.0.2/1.1 Beta does not make sense for a feature request which has not even been evaluated. I'm sure you're right, Frank, but it's a great disappointment. Making the alt key available as a modifier would at a (key) stroke make OOo much easier to customise and so to control. I know there are issues with window managers on Linux, and to some extent on Windows. But users grown-up enough to customise their keystrokes are capable of avoiding such conflicts or fixing them if they suddenly appear. And the uses of the alt key aren't limited to modifying ordinary keys. Being able to make use ctrl-alt and shift-alt combinations is also a great help. So I'm voting for this, though I think it should be a framework issue, rather than a ui one. I really agree that customizing shortcuts including the Alt-key is heavily needed, but that alone doesn't help :) This just came up on the mailing list agin. by my reckoning, there are five requests for this in IZ -- the oldest is #32. Surely, a decent reverence for such an ancient part of our culture should lead us at least to evaluate the question properly?

See also #32 #2547 #4579 #5963 #14391 I'm also going to shift this to framework, where it belongs. not sure if framework actually is the better component, but doesn't really matter. Adding UI's issues list to CC. *** Issue 32 has been marked as a duplicate of this issue. *** Is it possible that the patch in #11004 has already solved this? Hi Christian, could you please consider this for the PCD 20069? Thank you.Currently there is no hint within 20069 for a possible adding of the Alt-key. CJ->AS: Hi Andreas. Could we add ALT to the modifyer list?. If not please close the task. Thanks. according to http://www.openoffice.org/servlets/ReadMsg?list=releases&msgNo=7690 this issue will be set to OOoLater *** Issue 42944 has been marked as a duplicate of this issue. *** Here in issue 6342 the opening description > The Alt-Key should be available in the shortcut assignment too is comparable with issue 4756 > Expand shortcut possibilities (Use of <Alt> key is not offered) In 4756 there are two mentions of 6342. @grahamperrin: You are right. Duplicate of Issue 4756. Please transfer your votes to issue 4756, as this won't happen automatically! Resolving this issue as duplicate, because issue 4756 has more votes (and is prior to this one). *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 4756 *** duplicate -> closed |
