Shortcut key collision: Find Next vs. Bullet List

See original GitHub issue

Description

The Paragraph menu shows Option-Command-U as the shortcut for Bullet List, but this shortcut has no apparent effect. The cause might be that the Edit menu shows Option-Command-U also as the shortcut for Find Next.

Regardless of the cause, please consider changing the shortcut for Find Next to Command-G and the shortcut for Find Previous to Shift-Command-G; those would be consistent with applications such as Notes, TextEdit, and Pages, which follow Apple’s UI guidelines. Thank you.

  • Can you reproduce the issue?

Steps to reproduce

  1. With the cursor resting on a normal paragraph, press Option-Command-U.

Expected behavior:

paragraph becomes a bullet-list item

Actual behavior:

no change

Versions

  • Mark Text: 0.15.1
  • Operating system: macOS 10.15.1 (Catalina)

I don’t want to become the reason for users of other operating systems having to use unfamiliar shortcuts for the sake of consistency in my own environment. One could argue that it would be better for everyone if Mark Text could follow the local customs in cases like this.

We can use different shortcuts on Windows and macOS system.

FYI, on macOS,

  • Firefox 70.0.1 uses Command-G for “Find Again”
  • Chromium 80.0.3964.0 follows Apple’s guidelines for “Find Next” and “Find Previous”
  • I’m unwilling to read through Google’s T&C just to download Chrome to test this
