CodeLite IDE

Hi,

There is a small issue when defining a keyboard shortcut containing an Alt key.

I tried to redefine a copy shortcut from Ctrl+C to Alt+W to be more Emacs like.
However every time I hit Alt+W a Workspace tab appears...

Is it possible, you could add an option somewhere (say in Global Editor Preferences?) to turn off Alt behavior such that it would not trigger quick menu access?
Currently you cannot customize shortcuts that map to top menu tab names, i.e. Alt+F, Alt+E, Alt+S, Alt+W, Alt+B...

Best regards,
Pawel

I think its a windows thingi - you need to turn it off from windows

You are wright, it's configurable at gtk level (at least for linux).
To turn off mnemonics it is necessary to edit/create file ~/.gtkrc-2.0 and add the following line:

gtk-enable-mnemonics = 0

Then relog for changes to take effect.

Eran is it possible to define a shortcut that would contain more than one 'common' letter, like Alt+X+U? The dialog within Keyboard shortcuts menu won't let me do it and only Alt+X goes in, without U.

I dont think that it is possible using wxWidgets
