<alt + 1> does not work in viewer.
The new "open with" keys alt + 1, alt + 2, etc. only work in browser. Not viewer.
Keyboards issue---

- This works randomly here in the browser (with Alpha pad-digits… a mess for me), but it's not a good idea because with the non-US keyboards, only the digits on the NUM-pad are really usable, and Windows refuses totally Alt+ NUM-digit.
- A bit aside : generally, short cuts with Alt+letter¦digit might be avoided, since they can interfere with the menus ones in several other languages…
- In example : If I have a menu short cut for "Alt+è", it's the same than "Alt+7" for you, and it's the mess.

I'm not sure about it. Special character should not be used as mnemonics IMO. There could be problems with some characters...Clo wrote:- A bit aside : generally, short cuts with Alt+letter¦digit might be avoided, since they can interfere with the menus ones in several other languages…

«Racist design»

- We have not this in the menus in French, but it could help… DOS¦Windows have been planned prior for an US keyboard and in the case, we can see annoying residues of that design which doesn't care totally of other languages…
- In addition of the digits on the alpha keys, using the Alt modifier is more the issue than the ANSI upper characters themselves.
- Already in English, you cant' use "C" for the new "Create" menu, and obviously, "C" is not a special character; but there is a Alt+C shortcut that "steals" the letter.
- So, I've Édition and Créer that are much less visible than with the initial cap letters as Édition and Créer…
- However, there is a lacuna in the programme, since in others I can use i.e. "é" in the TC menu, where in French Alt+é opens alright the Sélection menu !

- With a French keyboard (and some others), to get a digit with an alpha-key, you must press <SHIFT> in addition; but for the commands which are the topic, that doesn't work anymore here : error sound from Win.

- And finally : for hotkeys in the dialogues, there is no problem with the accented characters, this increases the number of usable letters; but digits can't be used, for the aforesaid reasons…
- Pierre might add hotkeys working in all dialogues … and fix this in the Options… About the hotkeys

Not closed

- Sorry, not closed for me, that doesn't work at all here with a French keyboard under Xp-Pro
- I have added two programmes to open *.ico as a test, in the browser nothing happens, Alt+1 or 2 = *peanuts*
- In View, same, error-sound from Win.
Neither Numpad digits nor alpha digits work (even + Shift, since the French keyboard needs this for alpha digits…)

You have set these shortcuts for a US keyboard ! So, the naming is false with a French keyboard.
It's Alt + &... é... "... '... (... -... è... _... ç... à but NOT the digits.
!!! A belgian keyboard is not the same as a french keyboard
1=&, 2=é, 3=", 4=', 5=(, 6=§, 7=è, 8=!, 9=ç, 0=à....
- With the Numpad digits, that doesn't work at all.

No, i've checked. The shortcut is set to Alt+1, ... in the resource file. So it's strange. But you are right, with numpad digits, it's doesn't worksouistiti wrote:>> Pierre

Set for US, anyway !

• You must press SHIFT in addition to get the digits, and so, that doesn't work…
