Allow adding markers via menu bar

[scaramushe]

Add an option in the menu bar to add marker to current line Usecase: people who work on a machine where keyboard shortcuts are challenging

Alternatively - allow changing the keyboard shortcuts to some custom ones that are better supported on a platform

@scaramushe , could you please elaborate on this? You would find a menu item easier than these shortcuts:

1-8 Scrolls to the next line marked by the associated marker Shift+1-8 Scrolls to the previous line marked by the associated marker Ctrl+1-8 Toggles the associated marker type for the selected line(s)

You want to be able to do all marker operations with a mouse? So there would be a Markers menu with Set 1-8, Find Next/Previous 1-8?

Thanks for the clarification!

The usecase I have in mind is when working via virtual machine, for example parallel on Mac, some keyboard shortcuts are not available. In such case it is impossible to use ctrl +1-8, so mouse menu would be a solution. Like I mentioned above, adding an option to override the default keyboard shortcuts is also a resolution. As for your exact question, there could be a menu item called “add marker” which would have a submenu with values 1-8

Ah, makes sense. What would you remap things to if you could remap? Adding duplicate bindings may be easier than a full-on remapping feature.

Probably I’d use something that combines 3 keys- Alt Ctrl 1-8
