Text cursor movement shortcuts do not work correctly on macOS #5937

Open szhorvat opened 4 years ago

szhorvat commented 4 years ago
JabRef version ``` JabRef 5.0-beta.409--2020-02-09--6a9c915 Mac OS X 10.14.6 x86_64 Java 13.0.2 ``` On macOS, in a text box, Option-Left/Right moves the insertion point by one word, and Command-Left/Right moves it to the beginning or end of the line. This is the standard behaviour in all apps. JabRef follows this standard in some text boxes, but not others. It works in the Title field: ![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/1212871/74234572-67b2d000-4ccd-11ea-960e-665f1801f7a5.png) But it does not work in the BibTeX source box: ![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/1212871/74234580-7305fb80-4ccd-11ea-9bdd-0f595f914d93.png) This makes it very inconvenient to edit the BibTeX source on a Mac. Please ensure that the app follows the OS's standard in all textboxes.

This problem is still present in the released version, and somehow it seems to be by far the biggest annoyance/hindrance when I work with JabRef. I am very much looking forward to a fix.

Will check that, but could be obsolete by the recent key binding Changes from @calixtus

@Siedlerchr could you please test, if this issue still exists?

Problem with the richtextfx control used for the source code editor: Cmd + left/right moves by one word option + left/right does not do anything

szhorvat commented 1 year ago

This problem is still present in 5.7.
