After search in the nautilus shortcut description:
I searched in the forums to find something about this, but doesn't work in Pharo v3.
I still looking for a shortcut that I can use to easily change between open windows such as alt + tab/cmd + tab in a SO.
Does anyone know how to do this?
It is work in progress. Right now, it seems that the key combination has not yet been decided/implemented.
When I explore the key mapping attached to the world,
World kmDispatcher explore.
I only see CMD+K reported as part of directKeymaps bound to [ self openAndCommitToMonticello ].
If I browse senders of openAndCommitToMonticello, I discover some incantation:
Komitter class>>initialize
World
bindKeyCombination: $k command
toAction: [ self openAndCommitToMonticello ]
Apparently, CMD+K must be understood as lowercase $k... (?)
The message for navigating thru windows is SystemWindow class>>sendTopWindowToBack (don't ask how I discoverd this...).
There are two senders
the old keymapping infrastructure PasteUpMorph>>defaultDesktopCommandKeyTriplets
A window menu (triggered by upper right down triangle) WorldState class>>windowsOn:
It seems the assigned key was \... So we can try and hook this key binding again.
Since it is rather not convenient on my French mac keyboard (CMD+\ means holding four keys !!!), I'll do it with right arrow.
If you look at KMSingleKeyCombination class>>specialKeys, you see that code for right arrow is 29.
So let's try this:
World
bindKeyCombination: 29 command
toAction: [ System sendTopWindowToBack ].
Et voila, you get a new shortcut for navigating.
From Denis Kudriashov on the Pharo Slack,

provides ergonomic support in Pharo 5.0.
Loadable from the Catalog.
In Pharo 3.0 - Alt+tab works fine (continuously pressing it will keep flipping through windows, and pressing enter or space will select the displayed window)

In Krusader, I want to use Alt-D as a shortcut to focus the location bar. This works fine for browsers and Dolphin. When I set the shortcut for "Go To Location Bar" to "Alt-D", setting the shortcut has no errors. When I try to use the shortcut, I get an error popup saying that the key sequence 'Alt+D' is ambiguous.
Note that I have to hit 'Alt+D' twice to get the error. This makes me think that I'm colliding with the 'Alt+D' consumed by Plasma.
What can I do to get Krusader to do what Dolphin, Firefox, and Chromium do?
It is not possible by now. This is known bug of Krusader. In Ubuntu 20.04 the same problem is reproducing.
In Krusader keys combination Alt + letter or digit is used to navigate through UI (menu items, buttons, tabs, navigation path items). So Alt + D is pointing to something in it.
There are many bug reports with the similar problem on Krusader bugtracker. May be one day this will be fixed. Links to the bugs:
Ambiguous shortcut (Alt + R)
cant use shortcuts (Alt+E) which conflict mnemonics
Alt+letter keyboard shortcuts conflict with accelerators
alt+letter shortcuts are overriden by main menu shortcuts
Alt-shortcuts dont work with secondary layout
I faced a very strange problem: in someday(I don't really know when) the shortcut
Ctrl+Alt+B stoped working. This shortcut is just Go To Implementation(s). I still can do it by Ctrl+Alt+Mouse1.
I opened settings, to check how is this shortcut configured - all looks fine for me. So I tried to remove Ctrl+Alt+B and add the same combination again.
In Enter Keyboard Shortcut window I have to press key's so the IDEA would be able to set this shortcut. But I cannot record these combination, I still can record Ctrl+B, Ctrl+Alt+Shift+B, Alt+B, but not the right combination.
I looked at idea log file, but there was nothing criminal.
I wonder if some other application catches this combination, but I doesn't know how to find this application.
PS. I run my Idea on win7
By the way you're describing it, I strongly believe that the problem is not related to the IDE itself but probably some other program listening for that same key combo in a global level.
Its common to lose some keybinding after installing new applications or drivers. For example, I've lost some key bindings in my IDE after installing drivers for Intel Integrated Graphics. The driver was "stealing" hotkeys like Ctrl + Alt + < arrow > used to rotate the screen.
Double check for newly installed or updated programs/drivers, and make sure that they don't have any shortcut that may be conflicting with your IDE.
Also, you might use Hotkey Commander to verify which program is handling your Ctrl+Alt+B.
In Eclipse I could hit Ctrl+O and get a popup which I could use to get an overview of everything in the current class, pick an entry, and jump to it.
In idea, there is Alt+7, but I have a few issues with it. First, the keyboard doesn't seem to put its focus there. I have to take my hand off the keyboard and use the mouse to place the focus on the Structure dock.
I also don't like how it's taking up real estate. I don't want to change how things are laid out if I want to see the structure. I would like a more non-invasive popup, and handier and snappier.
Is there another feature that gives me quick access in the form of a popup preferably, like Ctrl+O provides in Eclipse?
Another nice feature would be to be able to use the J and K keys to move up and down the selection, instead of having to use the cursor keys. I'm using IdeaVim, so the normal workflow when editing files, is that both hands stay in a touch-type position. It would be nice if I can use the various navigation features also using vim keys...
Perhaps there is a way to enable this, that I haven't discovered yet?
IntelliJ equivalent of Eclipse's CTRL+O is CTRL+F12 (⌘+F12 on Mac), which will give you more or less the same pop-up as in Eclipse. But I'm not sure if it can be navigated using j and k keys.
More details can be found in the IntelliJ help.
I found a lot of tutorials and forum questions around remapping key bindings in Textmate and for the most part I know what needs to be done as far as copy the KeyBindings file and then make the changes needed. More on what I am talking about here http://blog.macromates.com/2005/key-bindings-for-switchers/
I am interested in re-mapping the esc key for nextComplete to control + spacebar. The problem is I am having a hard time finding what the code is for the spacebar or if this is even supported.
I mainly do actionscript development in eclipes and code hinting dialogue is triggered by this key combo and I would like to have the same in Textmate. Hitting the esc key kind of sux. I thought I would get used to it but the fact is that it just kills the flow of typing the rest of your code.
I could use some help figuring out what he code is for the space bar. I know control key is the ^ symbol. I tested this by changing the keybinding to ^s and it remapped just fine.
I think this one can be done with the OS X gui:
System Preferences, Keyboard, Click Keyboard Shortcuts Tab
Click the little Plus, and choose Application: Textmate.app, Menu Title: Next Completion, Type Command Space (or Control Space) and click Add and that should work. You might want to remove conflicting shortcuts - possibly spotlight?
For future reference, I used Key Codes to find the key for space is: \UF20
A keyboard shortcut to comment/uncomment out a piece of code is common in other programming IDE's for languages like Java, .Net. I find it a very useful technique when experimenting through trial and error to temporarily comment out and uncomment lines, words and parts of the code to find out what is and isn't working.
I cannot find any such keyboard shortcut on the Mathematica front end in version 7. I know that it is possible to comment out code by selecting the code, right mouse click and select Un/Comment from the menu that appears but this is too slow while coding.
I tried to access this using the menu key Menu on the keyboard but Mathematica frontend doesn't respond to or recognise this key unlike other applications, this could have allowed a key combination for commenting. Can someone else verify that this isn't unique to my machine and that the key isn't recognised by mathematica. I looked at this question and looked in the KeyEventTranslations.tr file but I don't think there is any way to create a shortcut to do this(?). Should I just live with it?
Any other suggestions?
(I have seen there is an Emacs version of mathematica, I have never tried Emacs or this Mma version and imagine that it would have this ability but would prefer not to go to the trouble and uncertainty of installing it. Also I would guess that the Wolfram Workbench could do this, but that may not be worth the investment just for this.)
You can install the shortcut in Mathematica 7.0.x if you are willing to edit the Mathematica system file MenuSetup.tr. You can find it in the same location as the KeyEventTranslations.tr file (i.e. in the installation under "SystemFiles/FrontEnd/TextResources/platform"). In MenuSetup.tr, locate the following line under the definition of the Edit menu:
MenuItem["Check &Balance", "Balance", MenuKey["B", Modifiers->{"Control", "Shift"}]],
Immediately below that line, insert the following:
MenuItem["Un/C&omment Selection", KernelExecute[FE`toggleComment[]], MenuKey["/", Modifiers->{"Command"}], MenuEvaluator -> Automatic, Method -> "Queued"],
The Un/Comment Selection command is now available under the Edit menu, with the keyboard shortcut Cmd-/ or Alt-/ depending on your platform -- just like in Mathematica 8 where this command comes pre-installed.
Please take as read the usual disclaimers about hacking the Mathematica installation files -- no warranty is offered :)
I do not know of any way to map this function to some shortcut involving the Menu key.
Shortcut Key, No Menu
The preceding steps mimic what Mathematica 8 does by installing a new menu item. If you prefer to leave the menus unchanged, then you can install the shortcut in KeyEventTranslations.tr instead. Add the following line:
Item[KeyEvent["/", Modifiers->{Command}], KernelExecute[ToExpression["FE`toggleComment[]"]], MenuEvaluator -> Automatic, Method -> "Queued"]
You'll need a comma on the end of that line if it is not the last item in the list.
Select the code and press one of the following:
Alt+/
Alt-E-O
Alt+E+O
Notes:
Tested only on Windows, using Mathematica 8.
On my non-US keyboard (ABNT Brazil), the shortcut Alt+/ doesn't work, instead I use Alt+E+O.
Here is code for your KeyEventTranslations.tr file that will comment out code. I am still working on the other half.
Item[KeyEvent["/", Modifiers -> {Command}],
FrontEndExecute[{
NotebookApply[FrontEnd`InputNotebook[],
"(*\[SelectionPlaceholder]*)"
]
}]
],
This binds it to Alt+/ as it is in Mathematica 8.
