Keyboard shortcut for reload #271

It would be great to have a keyboard shortcut for refresh. Something like Ctrl + R or F5. This would be useful in both the structure/data grids and the table list.

Indeed, thanks for bringing this up. I actually schedule for next week a complete accessibility overview of Sequeler in order to make it usable with just keyboard shortcuts.

So, question. Would you consider having two shortcuts to refresh the Tables list (structure) and Results view (data), or force the user to focus those sections, maybe with TAB, and have only one shortcut that works for both based on which area is focused?

Good question, I have been thinking about that as well. Two shortcuts don't seem like the most intuitive solution. If at all possible, I would perform a refresh in the area where the cursor is at. That is also how Blender does it.

If that's not possible, I would go for something like:

Ctrl + R for Results view (and/or F5)
Ctrl + Shift + R for Tables list (as it needs refreshing less)

User defined shortcuts? :-)
