| Summary | 0005196: Addition of basic text editing keyboard shortcuts (default config) | ||||
| Description | Scribus really should have these keyboard shortcuts at a very minimum: bold CTRL+B, italic CTRL+I, underline CTRL+U left CTRL+L, center CTRL+E, right CTRL+R, justified CTRL+J superscript CTRL++, subscript CTRL+= (I know users can customize the shortcuts themselves, but those who actually go to the effort of doing so are in a very small minority.) | ||||

IMHO it does not make sense to add shortcuts for hard formatting. Emphasis should be handled with character styles instead. |
|
|
That's also a possibility, e.g. CTRL+B to apply the emphasis/bold character style instead of bold itself. But that is really a side, technical issue--it does not change the need for keyboard shortcuts. There should be a quick way of applying commonly-used text formatting without having to reach for the mouse or customize keyboard shortcuts. This would really speeding up text editing, not to mention make Scribus more consistent with most other DTP/word processing/graphics software out there. |

Not in 1.3.4 |
|
|
Is this likely to be targeted for an upcoming version? I too believe these formatting shortcuts which are fairly universal should be configured by default. |

If not duplicates, then this bug at least is tightly related to that one: http://bugs.scribus.net/view.php?id=1076 |
