Add ability to use classic Paint Alt shortcuts

ZMYaro commented 3 years ago

Like Office 2007+, if a user starts a keyboard shortcut that would have worked with the classic Paint menu bar, show a message about it being recognized and handle it if possible.

If it was recognized but could not be handled, still show a message letting the user know it was recognized.

File

[x] Alt+F, N = “New”
[x] Alt+F, O = “Open...”
[x] Alt+F, S = “Save” (use regular save dialog for now, quick save in v4)
[X] Alt+F, A = “Save As...”
[X] Alt+F, C = “From Scanner or Camera...” (unsupported)
[x] Alt+F, V = “Print Preview” (use regular print)
[x] Alt+F, U = “Page Setup...” (unsupported)
[x] Alt+F, P = “Print...”
[x] Alt+F, E = “Send...” (use share)
[x] Alt+F, B = “Set As Background (Tiled)” (unsupported)
[x] Alt+F, K = “Set As Background (Centered)” (unsupported)
[x] Alt+F, X = “Exit”

Edit

[x] Alt+E, U = “Undo”
[x] Alt+E, R = “Repeat” (redo)
[x] Alt+E, T = “Cut”
[x] Alt+E, C = “Copy”
[x] Alt+E, P = “Paste”
[x] Alt+E, L = “Clear Selection” (delete selection)
[x] Alt+E, A = “Select All”
[x] Alt+E, O = “Copy To...” (saves selection as a bitmap file; unsupported)
[x] Alt+E, F = “Paste From...”

View

[x] Alt+V, T = “Tool Box” (shows/hides; unsupported)
[x] Alt+V, C = “Color Box” (shows/hides; unsupported)
[x] Alt+V, S = “Status Bar” (shows/hides; unsupported)
[x] Alt+V, E = “Text Toolbar” (shows/hides; switch to text tool)
[x] Alt+V, V = “View Bitmap” (full screen)

View → Zoom

[x] Alt+V, Z, N = “Normal Size” (zoom to 100%)
[x] Alt+V, Z, L = “Large Size” (zoom to 400%)
[x] Alt+V, Z, U = “Custom...” (focus zoom field)
[x] Alt+V, Z, G = “Show Grid” (shows/hides)
[x] Alt+V, Z, H = “Show Thumbnail” (shows/hides window with 100% view while zoomed in; unsupported)

Image

[x] Alt+I, F = “Flip/Rotate...” (draw attention to selection toolbar)
[x] Alt+I, S = “Stretch/Skew...” (unsupported)
[x] Alt+I, I = “Invert Colors”
[x] Alt+I, A = “Attributes...” (open resize dialog)
[x] Alt+I, C = “Clear Image” (clear canvas as undoable step without confirmation prompt)
[x] Alt+I, D = “Draw Opaque” (toggle transparency for currently selected tool; classic Paint would toggle selection tool option immediately and text tool option on reselect, which seems needlessly confusing to users)

Colors

[x] Alt+C, E = “Edit Colors...” (open color picker for now)

Help

[x] Alt+H, H = “Help Topics” (open help dialog)
