Feature request: keyboard shortcuts to main menu items

Post by janimm »

Hi,

I'm using MLV on tablet with small bluetooth keyboard. Would it be possible to add standard menu keyboard shortcuts? That would make it much more usable with keyboard.

Have you checked out the Hot Keys under the help drop down menu in MLV ? There are several hot keys there to navigate through the logs.

Yes, all those work. But accessing basic menus like file->open requires mouse/touch.

File open is Ctrl + o
Compare to Ctrl + c
Trail Live File Ctrl + t
Eport Loaded Log as Ctrl + e

Other than those what options might you be looking for ?

Thanks for these. What I was looking for is the standard way a Windows app menus work. Pressing alt activates menu bar and then you can use arrows to browse menus. Or usually alt followed by f opens file menu and so on. These shortcuts are usually marked by underscore on menu item text. TunerStudio has these, but MLV does not.
