Description jrojcek 2006-04-11 10:04:19 UTC 
Finding	
Participant wants to find out why he can't write '{' with Ctrl-Alt-B. Goes to the keyboard shortcuts dialog 
where he can't find it because it's not ordered alphabetically by shortcuts. In the new options dialog this 
would be even harder.

Severity	
1 participant couldn't solve his problem with the keyboard

Recommendation	
Design and implement "view by shortcuts" feature in keymap panel in options dialog.
Comment 1 Vitezslav Stejskal 2007-02-11 07:08:10 UTC 
Yeah, finding a shortcut in Tools-Options is just next to impossible right now.
Nobody knows what names the actions are called (especially editor actions that
are not visible anywhere) and if you happen to guess the action's name right you
won't have a clue what category it belongs to.

Being able to easily find actions assigned to a shortcut would help a lot, I think.

Please read through all the duplicates. They suggest various ways how this could be improved - search, filtering,
shortcut view, etc.
