Description Jared Burns CLA 2003-02-10 11:00:39 EST 
Build 20030206 (RC0)
Linux-GTK

I can't manage to switch views using the keyboard. Pressing Ctrl+F7 does
nothing (possibly a conflict with a build-in KDE shortcut?), so I added Alt+,
as the shortcut.

When I press the keys, the view menu appears but there's no way to actually
select a view. As soon as I release the keys, the menu disappears and if I
try pressing the up/down arrows with while the menu is open, nothing happens.

so your acccelerator is Ctrl+Alt+F7 ?
by "menu" you mean the dialog listing all views ?
Comment 2 Jared Burns CLA 2003-02-11 12:22:20 EST 
Sorry. No, I meant I added "Alt+," (it was the first sequence in the menu) as
a key binding.

It looks like a menu to me. But I mean the "thingy" that is supposed to pop up
when you press Ctrl+F7 to switch views. :)

Comment 4 Jared Burns CLA 2003-02-11 12:47:20 EST 
I reported two bugs here:
1. Ctrl+F7 doesn't work at all in KDE.
2. A different keybinding doesn't work either (the dup of 31051).

Do you want to reopen this bug for Ctrl+F7 or should I add the Ctrl+F7 issue
to Bug 31051?
Comment 5 Eduardo Pereira CLA 2003-02-11 14:07:19 EST 
Yes, I agree. We should have different binding for Linux.
Reopening and assinging to CM.
Comment 6 Chris McLaren CLA 2003-03-05 16:48:28 EST 
also, part 2) is fixed.
