I can confirm that LiBo always shows them regardless the OS or DE is running into. I've checked LXDE (gtk based) and XP and apps there don't show the accelerator, only LiBo does. I've to add that other OS, like Windows 2003, show always the underlined keyboard, and so does for instance KDE Plasma Desktop (even latest 4.10rc). My personal opinion is that this "hide everything" UI trend is just madness from a user perspective, it's just cosmetics that damages usefulness. Never less, I agree with the reporter that LiBo should conform with the environment and take as much as possible it's "look and feel". So, since at least KDE (and some Windows versions) show the accelerator in the menu, LiBo code can't just remove them but needs to "adapt". |
Created attachment 71660 [details] Screenshot Under Windows (since XP) and GNOME the underlined keyboard accelerators natively are hidden by default. They appear only after the pressure of ALT. LibreOffice shows they allways. Would it be possible to show they only after the ALT-button is pressed? Operating System: All
