TOPIC: Keyboard Shorcuts

Keyboard Shorcuts 10 months ago #988

Could be possible to add keyboard shorcuts like in Gmail (support.google.com/mail/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=6594) for the administrator template?

I mean like pressing "m" to go to the "Module Administrator".

I'm sure is possible but I have never done anything like that, does anyone have experience with that? do you feel that can be useful?

Not only that. I always tryt o save edited article by Ctrl+s. I get save page dialog and remember that this is not application. I think Ctrl+s have to be there for Apply button.

I was wondering the challenges to make that happen. For example:

- Ctrl + S: have to work only if you are editing something but not in a list of elements.
- Ctrl + M: to go to de module manager have to work only if you are not editing an article (or other component)
- The keyboard keys need to be available for override in the language packages. Just in case in other language keyboards doesn't exist the letter "m"
- ¿others?

This has been discussed before and I think the idea is great. We just need someone to code it.

Would you want to do it as a feature submission for the CMS?
