Bug ID: 469637
Summary: Restore Spectacle GUI button shortcuts
Classification: Applications
Product: Spectacle
Version: 23.04.0
Platform: Neon
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: General
Assignee: noaha...@gmail.com
Reporter: k...@callthecomputerdoctor.com
CC: k...@david-redondo.de
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
In the version prior to Spectacle 23.04, I could hold down the Alt key and I'd
see an underline appear on the GUI interface so that I could see which key to
press to activate the button.
For example, if I wanted to activate the Save button, I'd hold down the Alt key
and then see that S was underlined in the Save button. Easy and consistent with
other KDE/Qt software.
With the new 23.04 version, that has been removed. Through experimentation, I
have found that the equivalent is (was always?) Ctrl+S. So I can retrain myself
to press Ctrl-S to save my screenshots, which at least I'm happy that
possibility exists.
Strangely, in the Configure... -> Shortcuts tab, there is no shortcut for
Ctrl-S. Can this hidden keyboard shortcut at least be made configurable in the
Shortcuts interface? Or is this the interface for the global desktop shortcuts?
And if so, could Spectacle gain the Ctrl-Alt-I shortcut for the excellent "Find
Action..." popup that exists in other KDE apps?
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Invoke Spectacle
2. Press Alt-S (to invoke Save button)
OBSERVED RESULT
Nothing happens.
EXPECTED RESULT
Should invoke Save as if clicking on the button.
My suggestion is that the common usability behavior be restored/reimplemented
and that the shortcuts exist among other keyboard shortcuts.
