Hotkey to move forward one phrase #31

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 2 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. There is a hotkey to move back one phrase to do a translation (Shift+Enter)

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

In some cases it would be helpful to have this also to move forward one phrase.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
AI 4.1.1./Linux

Please provide any additional information below.

We used to use the Tab key for this, but many users complained and wanted the 
Tab key
to do the same thing that the Enter Key does, so we changed the Tab key to work
identically to the Enter key. You can always click on the Reviewing radio 
button.
While it is active Adapt It will only move forward one source phrase at a time 
for
each press of Tab or Enter.

Yes, the Reviewing radio button is a solution to this.

When working on the keyboard in AI and using mainly hotkeys, this solution is 
cumbersome.

Isn't there a hotkey combination still not used in AI similar to Shift+Enter 
(e.g.
Ctrl+Enter, or Alt+Enter) to move forwards?

OK, I will look into the possibility of using Ctrl+Enter for this, and I have 
placed
it on our feature request list. Alt+Enter would not work as it is already a 
hotkey
for a different command (Merge). One consideration which I will have to 
research is
that we don't violate the conventional system of reserved keys for a given 
operating
system. For example, Apple reserves certain key combinations for system use. As 
far
as I can tell, however, we could also use Ctrl+Enter for the Apple OS X version 
of
Adapt It (most Apple keyboards also have a Ctrl key these days).

It looks like the behavior here hasn't changed -- Tab or Enter will go forward to the next SourcePhrase not in the KB, not necessarily to the next SourcePhrase in the document.
