Hi, basically, it normalises all menu shortcut output… in a long but clear way (and compatible with the platform). cheers, Esteban

I am a windows user and I noticed a couple of strange things :
- To open a transcript, or a browser or other, it is written alt + O + T, or B, or other, but it is ctrl + O + T, or B or other actually. - Do it in a playground is alt + d or ctrl + d, but in Nautilus it is only alt + d (ctrl + d seems to go to the end of the text) I will continue to find this kind of thing Cheers, Franck From: [hidden email] Date: Thu, 28 May 2015 19:15:05 +0200 To: [hidden email] Subject: [Pharo-dev] I need a windows user and a linux user to test Hi, basically, it normalises all menu shortcut output… in a long but clear way (and compatible with the platform). cheers, Esteban |
For the alt + o + t it's maybe because we changes the shortcut today.

this changed just recently ToolShortcutsCategory has hard code shortcut. (pharo 50071 (I asked Cyril to announce this change on the mailing list))

I’m lost now.
Which one is the “meta” key in windows? Alt or Ctrl? Esteban

Should be ctrl (one in windows almost never uses alt). But Nicolai said there was a bug in there. I didn't have the time to look into that yet. El jue., 28 de may. de 2015 a la(s) 8:17 p. m., Esteban Lorenzano <[hidden email]> escribió:

The old short cut for "open workspace" was alt+o+w. Now if you type alt+o+w it is recognized as alt+w which closes the active window. (But maybe I need just some time to get used to the new ones)

Currently, on Windows, the keymapping framework knows only two modifiers "ctrl" and "command"2015-05-28 20:16 GMT+02:00 Esteban Lorenzano <[hidden email]>:

It depends, ahah.
To copy/paste it is ctrl, but to quit a window it is alt F4, to switch between windows it is alt + tab ... But there is also a meta key, the windows key. With a mac keyboard for example, the cmd key does this meta key. As a windows user it became an other language to know, there is no absolute rule for shortcuts Franck From: [hidden email] Date: Thu, 28 May 2015 20:16:49 +0200 To: [hidden email]; [hidden email] Subject: Re: [Pharo-dev] I need a windows user and a linux user to test I’m lost now.

But exactly those (the windows key, alt F4 and alt tab) are defined by the operating systems and never reach pharo :) El jue., 28 de may. de 2015 a la(s) 8:25 p. m., Franck Warlouzet <[hidden email]> escribió:

ok… but we are using what?
alt or ctrl? my question is: the menus should show (for example, to save the image): Ctrl + Shift + S or Alt + Shift + S and since we are there: What happens with linux? Esteban

Always Ctrl. That's how usual application shortcuts work on windows and unix. Ctrl. El jue., 28 de may. de 2015 a la(s) 8:28 p. m., Esteban Lorenzano <[hidden email]> escribió:

Yes ctrl is more usual to save, copy etc. alt seems to be used to manipulate windows.

ok, I fixed the issue… should be showing “Ctrl” now, and not “Alt”.

but now there is a problem in glamour, because it is using Alt and not Ctrl… that’s another problem, and has to be solved with another slice (bah, a configuration now) :)

Glamour for now doesn't have the same system of Shortcuts as Pharo. I
already opened an Issue about that. And for the ctrl + o + w and ctrl + w it's not a problem with windows/linux shortcut because we already had cmd + o + w and cmd + w on Mac an nobody complained about it. The use of ctrl is just a way to unify shortcuts because for now it's a little "everyone does what he want". And I don't think someone want to create and maintain 1 system of shortcuts for windows, on system for linux, on system for mac.

Observe all the PharoShortcuts saying for example... ^ $b command mac | $b ctrl win | $b ctrl unix That is... Linux/Windows meta-key = Ctrl. OSX meta-key = Cmd Alt should remain Alt and be equivalent to Option on osx, but it seems on Windows that somewhere low level the Alt key *becomes* a Cmd key.

It might be a bit bumpy road but really needs to be done.

well, along with this slice I opened: https://pharo.fogbugz.com/f/cases/15627
who “fixes” the glamour issue. but it needs to be integrated so it will take a couple of days more. hope with this at least the look of menus are normalised. after we need to work on removing old shortcuts and add them through keybindings, then we can have a coherent shortcut set (one step at a time).
