------- Additional comments from erikanders...@openoffice.org Sun Feb 15 18:04:41 +0000 2009 ------- @mba: I strongly recommend that OOo be allowed to use *any* recognizable keycode, beyond just Ctrl, Alt, and Shift. I regularly make use of the Win and Alt-Gr key modifiers, for instance. Concerns about desktop environments or window managers catching the keypresses could be alleviated simply by notifying the user that this might happen. If someone is going so far as to customize their keyboard input, they are very probably already savvy enough to deal with such concerns, provided they have a hint at where to look to change their system settings. Another option for avoiding key combos that the DE or WM catch instead is to have the user input the desired key combo in the dialog -- I believe this is what MS Word already does, and is also what the KDE config dialogs do. If the desired key combo produces a strange effect instead of appearing in the OOo dialog, it's pretty clear that that key combo is being caught. Just my $0.02. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
