Description Ding-Yi Chen 2011-07-15 01:16:39 UTC 
Description of problem:
Keyboard shortcuts should be able to use to speed up the editing.

Keyboard short cut list:
alt-up: Move the focus to previous cell in both editing mode and navigating mode.
alt-down: Move the focus to next cell in both editing mode and navigating mode.
alt-g: copy source to trans in editing mode
j: Move the focus to next cell in navigating mode.
k: Move the focus to previous cell in navigating mode.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
1.4-SHAPSHOT
Comment 1 Sean Flanigan 2011-08-10 06:01:59 UTC 
We should also have these shortcuts:

alt-j: Move the focus to next cell in both edit mode and navigate mode.
alt-k: Move the focus to previous cell in both edit mode and navigate mode.
alt-g: copy source to trans in edit mode or navigate mode

Most of these shortcuts have been implemented.  Some haven't, but they aren't blockers for Zanata 1.4.

Currently missing:

alt-up, alt-down, alt-j and alt-k currently only work in edit mode, not navigate mode.

J and K shortcuts in navigate mode have not been implemented.

(Basically, we don't have navigate mode at all, yet.)
Comment 2 Sean Flanigan 2011-08-11 05:56:16 UTC 
What has been implemented is okay for 1.4.
Comment 3 Sean Flanigan 2011-08-19 01:00:02 UTC 
We shouldn't forget about the navigation-mode shortcuts.
Comment 4 Sean Flanigan 2011-09-07 04:33:03 UTC 
Assigning to Scrum product owner for prioritisation.
Comment 5 Runa Bhattacharjee 2011-09-08 12:41:23 UTC 
Non-availability of shortcuts particularly in the navigation mode is an important feature loss. Moving this back into the queue to be considered for v1.5.
Comment 6 Alex Eng 2011-10-17 03:28:51 UTC 
Correction: 
ALT+J = Move to next entry
ALT+K = Move to previous entry
Comment 7 Alex Eng 2011-10-17 05:42:04 UTC 
Implemented shorcuts in navigation mode. See https://github.com/zanata/zanata/commit/cba272203d9fe8c6bb09438364623317621414c8
Comment 8 Ding-Yi Chen 2011-10-18 02:55:44 UTC 
VERIFIED with Zanata version 1.4.2-SNAPSHOT (20111017-1623)
