Customize All Keyboard Shortcuts #2645

incace posted onGitHub

Current behavior

Currently, it looks like you can only customize three of the Hotkeys/Keyboard Shortcuts. Are there any plans in the future to add the ability to customize all hotkeys? I find focusing the search box with Cmd + Shift + L to be rather annoying. Please tell me I am missing a setting somewhere where I can customize them all.

Expected behavior

Customize all Hotkeys/Shortcuts

Steps to reproduce

N/A

Environment

  • Version : 0.11.11
  • OS Version and name : macOS High Sierra (10.13.6)

Our shortcut system is pretty messy, currently, you can't customize other hotkeys because they're hardcoded.

Thanks for taking the time to reply. Is this a possibility in the future?

posted by incace over 6 years ago

Not in the near future, I think. It's pretty messy in the code right now and the project maintainers are very busy and working on a re-write version of this app so it very depends on the community right now.

I want to work on this issue, what keyboard shortcuts should be customizable? all options in views?

posted by elfman about 6 years ago

@elfman If you are trying to add more customisable shortcuts, could you check if the shortcut still exist for exiting Editor mode? The wiki - Keyboard Shortcuts describes Ctrl + W as Exit Editor mode but on OSX CMD + W is bound to Exit Window.

To be able to customize CodeMirror shortcuts would be great. But for that many, the keyboard shortcut manager of Visual Studio Code would be a good reference.

@jvgrootveld https://github.com/BoostIO/Boostnote/blob/master/browser/components/MarkdownEditor.js#L17 Editor only listen for ctrl + w, not CMD+W. But it seems handleKeyDown in MarkdownEditor is not invoked when I press key in the editor. That's strange. I tried on Mac OS

@daiyam customizing shortcuts of editor is a heavy job. There are more than 60 shortcuts in CodeMirror according to its document. I just want to customize the hotkeys of the menu.

The first priority here should be to make Boostnote's own hotkeys configurable, for example switching to the next and previous note with Ctrl + [ and Ctrl + ].
