Exploring different logging scenarios in bug 185523 the log is not appropriate way of telling the user about a keybinding conflict A better user feedback mechanism would be to open the Key Assist Dialog with the conflicting commands and allow the user to select one. The logging is still necessary for capturing the runtime conflicts, but the user wouldn't be directed there. PW
Created attachment 66709 [details] Key Assist conflicts v03 If the user tries to use a conflicted key :-) use the key assist dialog to allow them to choose from the available commands. PW
Created attachment 66715 [details] Key Assist conflicts v04 When the user chooses a key combination that has a conflict, open the key assist dialog (the same one you get for ALT+SHIFT+Q) and let them choose between the commands that have the conflict. PW
The shell is kind of ugly but it works - +1. Maybe the column widths can be adjusted to better use the space? Screencap coming.

Released to HEAD >20070515 11:45 PW There's code in the key assist dialog that's supposed to set up the columns ... do you see the same thing for the multi-assist case? ALT+SHIFT+Q or ALT+SHIFT+X Later, PW
Paul: They look bad in that case too.
For a late Tuesday I build PW
