Suggestion: Change conversion hotkey #179

Closed Caveat-zz closed 12 years ago

Caveat-zz commented 12 years ago

The hotkey combination to convert to XP mode is "Ctrl" & "X"... which is also the combination used in Windows to cut & paste text. This is inconvenient, as a user may accidentally hit Ctrl-X trying to move text around. Perhaps the less used letter E would be a better key to pair with Ctrl?

Honestly, I'm not sure why that of all things, has a hotkey. Its an irreversible act, and it should not be easy for users to accidentally push.

UrsKR commented 12 years ago

I can't remember why we put a hotkey on that, and I am fine with dropping or changing it.

curttasker commented 12 years ago

Dropped, and I'll think about tossing a confirmation box on it in the future.

UrsKR commented 12 years ago

Please don't, or at least make it configurable as a preference. I wouldn't want to go through a dialog each time I change a character to XP.

curttasker commented 12 years ago

Heh, I feel like I spend my entire life in Bonus Point mode. There always seems to be one more change I need to make before I'm ready to lock into xp mode.

Personally I want to be able to switch back. I keep having to re-make Sidereals because of the less-than-obvious Astrology tab being hidden behind their equipment instead of on the more-easily-noticed Magic tab with their Charms.

UrsKR commented 12 years ago

Merged, the Hotkey is gone.

Once, we tried our hand at switching back. It wasn't much of a problem, but switching forth again was troublesome: We couldn't decide on the best strategy to merge the changed values, and so, we dropped it.
