Description mjr_1974 2008-08-01 14:16:12 UTC
Hi,
I think the KeyMap in the Options window should be improved. For example, it is very difficult to find an existent
shorcut... you need to read all the tree in order to do so. Also, trying to find an action is not always easy you need
to spend a lot of time reading the tree. I guess the presentation could be better by having a table instead of a tree,
with the group of actions in the first column, the action in the second one, and the shorcuts on the third one... In
that way users can sort/filter the table to find what they're looking for. A "Find shorcut" are will be useful too...
once the user presses the shorcut the table should go to the action that's mapped to it.
Thanks
