Description steve 2020-06-06 11:06:46 UTC 
Description:
On macOS it is default behavior to close windows with ⌘W. This is not possible with the About dialog in LibreOffice 7.0b1.

Please add that functionality.

Steps to Reproduce:
Open About dialog and press ⌘W

Actual Results:
Nothing - the about dialog stays open forcing users to close that dialog using the mouse.

Expected Results:
⌘W should close the about dialog as any other dialog in LO can be closed with that keyboard shortcut.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
ESC button does close about dialog, so that is great. Adding ⌘W should make the feeling more native as macOS users are conditioned for that to close a dialog as well.

Interestingly below v7 when pressing ⌘W in the about dialog, the LO website is opened. That behavior feels very wrong so it is an improvement, it did not make it to the new about dialog.

Finder > About works as Steve describes: escape and cmd+W closes. So let's see if we can implement this easily.

See also the discussion on https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/c/core/+/95791 where a ctrl/cmd+C shortcut is requested to copy the version info.
