#438 closed misbehavior (discarded)

Duplicated menu item mnemonics

Description (last modified by westram)

Generally duplicates should be fixed everywhere.
Practically they always tend to re-appear.

Gtk-version

  • activates all menu-item-mnemonics, motif just picked the first in that case (or maybe arb only installed the first?!).
  • activates mnemonics for buttons (and other gui-elements?) in all windows (duplicate check only done in windows with menus)
    • duplicate-check should be enhanced (in trunk) to check these elements as well (runtime check is present here; should be in trunk as changes to callers should be done there)

Code to detect duplicated mnemonics has been removed from gtk.

  • if that code removed duplicates then it should be reactivated
    was merged back to gtk_only with [11928]
  • gtk-version should avoid duplicates in some other way

As effect several mnemonics are hardly usable atm.

  • Example: EDIT4/Block/UnalignBlockCenter (which is duplicated by 'LineBlock↔ColumnBlock')
    • motif: unalign center usable via keyboard: 'Alt-b' 'c'
    • gtk:
      • First use: 'Alt-b' 'c' 'Enter'
      • Further uses: 'Alt-b' 'c' 'c' 'Enter'
