Complete the serie of shortcuts already working in the reference toolbar #26

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
What steps will reproduce the problem?
There are already shortcuts for the reference tools for
- in the book box: downarrow opens the list of Bible books,
- choosing a Bible book (typing the initial character several times)
- switch forth/back to other boxes by Tab/Shift+Tab, this includes also the
reference-history tools
- down/up-arrow in the chapter and verses box to move to the next/previous
verse

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
-> Add a shortcut to move the cursor into the Bible book box.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
XS Portable-2.13b.zip in WinXP

Please provide any additional information below.

The key to focus on the book chooser text box is now:

control+down-arrow

In 2.14b it worked only for the first time:
control+down-arrow switched to the verse box on the toolbar.
Then I clicked into a module, and now control+down-arrow does not work any 
more. Even restarting XS does not change this.

It works consistently for me. I'm not sure what this could be. What system are 
you using?

Could you please find another keyboard shortcut?
control+down-arrow switches my monitor image with 180 degrees, my externer 
monitor now stands on his head .....

Regarding comment 6: try it again with the 2.14 when it's available and see if 
it works then.

Regarding comment 7: Do you have another suggested key to use?

My suggestion would be is a combination with the character B (like Paratext, a 
Scripture editor program does it)

Done: Control+B will select the book text box now.

I left the Control+down-arrow for this functions as well because it works on 
keyboards of any language (whereas Control+B will only work on Latin keyboards).

This is a good idea to keep Control+down-arrow, as Ctrl+B is to remember easily 
in Germanophone languages (book, Buch) but not in Latin based languages (e.g. 
livre in French).

I have to figure out on my machine how to undo my montitor switch (caused by 
Control+down-arrow) by a shortcut (working with a mouse in this condition is 
painful ...)
