Keyboard shortcut for setting font size (small, normal, large, huge)Hi,
I use Tomboy for a lot and it's indispensable. There's really only one thing that slows me down when writing notes, and that's choosing the font size. Pretty much all my notes have headings in them, which are text set to "large" or "huge". But I always need to break my flow and use the mouse to select the font size. I haven't managed to find a keyboard shortcut for these actions. Is there one that I've missed? If not, presumably I could quite easily generate an addin to perform this simple function, without having to get too familiar with Mono? Thanks for your help. Justyn. _______________________________________________ Tomboy-list mailing list Tomboy-list@... http://lists.beatniksoftware.com/listinfo.cgi/tomboy-list-beatniksoftware.com |

Re: Keyboard shortcut for setting font size (small, normal, large, huge)Pete Deremer pointed out to me that this is in Bugzilla.
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=502821 Looking at the Tomboy source it doesn't look too difficult to add the keybindings. The relevant code is in NoteWindow.cs. There are markup objects including bold, strikeout, large, huge etc. Bold, italic, strikeout etc have a property called AddAccellerator which describes the keybinding. So if I add AddAccellerator properties to the existing small, normal, large, huge, bullets, increase_indent and decrease_indent objects we'll have keybindings for them, right? Could someone who knows something about Mono or Tomboy tell me if I'm barking up the wrong tree please? I'll give it a go at some point soon (unless someone else wants to). But what keybindings would be appropriate for the various actions? * Font size: Small, Normal, Large and Huge. * Increase/decrease indent. * Bullets. Justyn.

These are: * Font size:Ctrl+0 for normal, Ctrl+1 to Ctrl+9 for sizes * Increase/decrease indent: Not set by default but Alt+Left/Right arrow does something similar in other OO applications. * Bullets: Shift+F12 Leon _______________________________________________ Tomboy-list mailing list Tomboy-list@... http://lists.beatniksoftware.com/listinfo.cgi/tomboy-list-beatniksoftware.com |

Re: Keyboard shortcut for setting font size (small, normal, large, huge)The Shift+F12 for bullets definitely seems like a good idea.
The Ctrl+number in OpenOffice selects the text "style", seems like quite a good fit for text sizes in tomboy. Not too sure about the alt left/right though, that's normally used for browsing forward/back in file/web browsers. Anyone else care to weigh in? Justyn.
