F6 doesn't work for showing favorites menu or has the hotkey changed?

It's not F6, but Ctrl+F1

Both shortcuts should work, a bug IMO.

I think F1 and combinations with F1 should be for help, only. Could we have a different shortcut for that?

Oh no please... F1 is F1 and Ctrl+F1 is another shortcut. In file managers F1 is for help too, while Alt+F1 is for disk change, therefore Ctrl+F1 has been added also here, it's quite intuitive.

I hope 2 pane support will be added sometime and we should use standard shortcuts IMHO, so Alt+F1, Alt+F2 and also F5/F6 to copy/move, at least as opion.

Don't remember why it has been changed...

O.k., fine. From what I can see in the current assignemnts we have all Ctrl+<function keys> free. So why use Ctrl + F1 when there is many other free Ctrl+F<n> hotkeys? For example F10 focuses the main menu, we could use Ctrl+F10 for opening the Favourites menu.

There was a discussion about it, don't want to start it again, I said why I think it's intuitive...

Ctrl+F1 and F6 have been added, so no hotkey has been changed in 1.90, just F6 has been removed, now it's fixed, there are more important things IMHO...
