FYI: The default shortcut for the menu is Alt+F3 and those things are called "mnemonics" - shortcuts is what you use w/o menus, not to navigate in one (and btw. can assign to keep above etc., so you don't have to invoke the popup at all) On the bug/wish: &M and &A seems untaken in resp. contexts, but i guess we'd break string freeze by that - so it will in doubt have to wait for 4.10 :-( Thanks for fixing my terminology. Is it possible to edit those mnemonics/menus as a user? (If not it's a shame - pretty every other menu seems editable). If it helps as a reason to break the string freeze, I would say it's a regression over 4.7 where there is a mnemonic for 'advanced' which I think was the old name, > If not it's a shame - pretty every other menu seems editable
Humm? You can edit shortcuts but how do you edit mnemonics? They're often even autopicked by the toolkits (what might be a way around string freeze btw.)
Hmm, you seem to have lost part of my previous comment - I can see it in the web interface here; lets try again: 1) Is it possible to edit the mnemonic used in the menu as a user/via configuration rather than a rebuild? 2) I believe this is a regression over 4.7 where there was a mnemonic for 'advanced' on the menu. No, not lost - i was responding. So again: how do you edit mnemonics at all? Eg. the mnemonic to minimize windows is and remains "n" while i set the shortcut to ctrl+alt+shift+left > So again: how do you edit mnemonics at all?
That was my question! I was just wondering if there was a way to work around this if it has to wait for 4.10 to be really fixed.
If there is no GUI way of editing it, is there a string file I can go and tweak in my install to change the mnemonic.
Once more: you *stated*
> If not it's a shame - pretty every other menu seems editable
And I want to know "how" - I'm not aware of *any* way to alter *any* mnemonic, so if you actually can alter mnemonics and tell me how i'm gonna tell you whether this is possible or can be enabled for this menu.
Yeh I think you're right, there doesn't seem to be a way to alter mnemonics; I've put a global shortcut in for now (although in 3 years time I'll probably be swearing for days when I try to use the combination in a different program until I remember....) probably too late for 4.9, but I could ask Albert (language and release coordinator) tomorrow. It would be most appreciated if you could work on it (I have stopped caring about mnemonics about a decade ago to be honest).
