[edit] User Notes / Questions
Looking at the Gnome HIG, wonder if you would consider Ctrl++ for Zoom in and Ctrl+- for Zoom out?
Inkscape and Gimp just use + or - --Cbradney 10:05, 19 Feb 2005 (UTC)
- Votes++ --Joeboy 17:53, 19 Feb 2005 (UTC)
Went with Control +/- so you can still zoom while typing. --Cbradney 23:39, 2 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Wonder if you would consider for the Story Editor
Ctrl+Shift+U for 'Update Text Frame and Exit' ?
(Ctrl+U is 'Update Text Frame')
I'm still to rewrite the menu system for Story Editor --Cbradney 23:39, 2 Apr 2005 (UTC)
