| Steps To Reproduce | start scribus. press 't', draw a textframe. press Ctrl+E. note that nothing happens. right click on the textframe to open the local menu. see that Ctrl+E should open the attributes dialog. press Ctrl+E. note that nothing happens. | ||||

Control E should be assigned to image effects by default. Otherwise, something else is swallowing the keystroke. |

The 'Ctrl+E' being used for image effects is not the problem. I can assign any shortcut to "itemAttributes" and it still does not work. The ScrAction "itemAttributes" never reaches anything, because it never gets added to a lasting widget. The addAction() adding it to the local menu does not really work, because while the local menu is open the shortcut "A" from the menu Text "&Attributes" somehow wins, and once the local menu is closed, the action is no longer added to something. A solution would be to introduce a menu item for "itemAttributes". This would implicitly call addAction() and add "itemAttributes" to the itemMenu. If "itemAttributes" shall not have a menu item it would be necessary to call addAction() explicitly and add the ScrAction "itemAttributes" to something like the itemMenu or the ScribusMainWindow. I found this about QActions (https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/qaction.html#qaction-in-widget-applications): "Actions are added to widgets using QWidget::addAction() or QGraphicsWidget::addAction(). Note that an action must be added to a widget before it can be used. This is also true when the shortcut should be global (i.e., Qt::ApplicationShortcut as Qt::ShortcutContext)." |
