A way to Edit Sorce without having to use the mouse? #50

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Be using AI to gloss first draft material so a mentor who doesn't know 
the Source language can do an advisor check.

2. Discover a typo in the Source text and want to change it, (with a view 
to exporting the source text later to replace the text imported from the 
file system.)

3. Try the hotkey for Edit Source Text (Ctrl-Q), but noting happens. Take 
hand off keyboard home keys and use mouse to click source text word, then 
do Ctrl-Q to edit the source text.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Hoping to be able to Edit Source Text without having to use the mouse, but 
nothing happened.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Version 4.1.4 Unicode, on Windows XP SP3.

Please provide any additional information below.
This is not a bug report but a request for an ease-of-use feature. If you 
made Ctrl-Q available while the focus is in the adaptation box, people 
might find themselves in it by mistake, so a shortcut key to have the 
effect of clicking on the Source word, so that Ctrl-Q then works, would be 
safer. Or perhaps not greying Edit Source Text if the source text is not 
selected would meet the need.

Thanks for listening,
   Jim

Bruce is currently working on a feature addition to allow the user to press 
Ctrl+Q
even when no source text is selected, and it will bring up the Edit Source Text
dialog for the source text at the active location of the phrase box. This new 
feature
should appear in the next update.
