The shortcuts should definitely be shown while using the mouse. Who came up with this idea? I know this isn't the GTK+ mailing list, but seriously, how is this an improvement? Were the drop down menus getting too wide with the included shortcuts? Were they interfering with legibility? Why are they trying to fix problems that don't exist? What percentage of users navigate the menus via keyboard? To me beginners use the mouse to navigate the menus. Experts use keyboard shortcuts. People that are unable to use the mouse use the keyboard to navigate the menus until they learn the shortcuts. It is very awkward for me to learn the keyboard shortcuts if they aren't visible during mouse navigation. I never use the keyboard to navigate the menus. Just my two cents. -Jason Simanek _______________________________________________ Gimp-developer mailing list Gimp-developer@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-developer
