------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fri Nov 10 20:42:06 -0800 2006 ------- These shortcut reminders are _not_ independent of language. They represent the English keyboard shorcuts. Evidently these English keyboard shortcuts persist, even when we choose keyboard accelerators available in the translated menu items. This is confusing. When "Open" is Ctrl+O, and Ctrl+O remains in the menu even when the word "Open" is « ~Mở » in my language, with a keyboard accelerator of "M", which keyboard combination activates this menu item? Ctrl+O for English or Ctrl+M for Vietnamese? The keyboard shortcuts are chosen by the developers of the original (in this case, English-language) version of the software, as mnemonics for the menu items. "O" for "Open". "F" for "File". "P" for "Print". If these English keyboard shortcuts are retained, it becomes "O" for « Mở » (the second character is _not_ "o"), "F" for "Tập tin" and "P" for "In". The keyboard shortcuts stop being helpful mnemonics and become confusing conflicting information. And what of the accelerators shown in our menu items? Do they work as well, or are they useless? I don't think this is an invalid issue, since it involves conflicts and confusion for users. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
