Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 48488
User-selectable sets of keyboard shortcuts
Last modified: 2013-02-07 22:36:40 UTC
Having to adjust to different shortcuts when going from one program to another, is certain to annoy many users and slow them down. Presently, everyone has to hope the designers will happen to choose their favorites. This could be the solution: The idea, is to have a few popular sets of shortcuts which can be selected based on popular programs. So, they might select between imitations of: OOO, MSWord, vi, and so on. The sets should apply to the buttons on all the standard dialogs too ("Find & Replace" for example). Some caption renaming might also be involved, shortcuts rely on ampersands preceding letters in them.
reassigned to requirements
I suggest merging this rather interesting idea with issue 18829
