Add F3 shortcut to toggle the dual layout feature
See original GitHub issueWhat’s the Problem?
As someone who’s comming from an KDE Background (Dolphin as Filemanager) i’m used to different Keyboardshortcuts. The Problem is that i see no way of that option in Files. Not in an .json like the Terminal setting or an GUI option
Solution/Idea
A way to customize the Keyboard shortcut without modification of the source code. Like through the Settings in the Settings Page or through an .json similar to that of Terminal:
{
"$schema": "https://aka.ms/terminal-profiles-schema",
"actions":
[
{
"command":
{
"action": "splitscreen",
},
"keys": "ctrl+alt+s"
},
]
}
with a Syntax like that example.
For these Types of things its nice to have an extended list for all actions like this one again from Terminal https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/terminal/customize-settings/actions
Alternatives
An Alternative is through the Registry with an key in HKCU\SOFTWARE\Files-community\shortcuts
and put the “Actions” into an REG_SZ
type and the shortcut in the data field.
Priorities
Capability | Priority |
---|---|
The change of keyboard shortcuts without manual change of the sourcecode | Must |
Changing it through an .json, with well documented actions | Should |
Changing it through the Settings in the App with entries for each Action | Could |
