Hello,
I hope this is an appropriate email to this list. First of all, PgAdmin
is a great tool and I use it all the time. Thank you all for building
and contributing to it. I also searched the mail archives and didn't
see this issue reported already..
Problem:
I use Windows XP sp2 and have noticed that in recent additions of
PgAdmin, in the SQL sub-application there are two top level menus with
the same letter:
File | Favorites
This creates a situation where some very common Windows key strokes no
longer work in this application. For example, almost every application
in Windows will respond to:
Alt-F-S => Save file
But in the SQL app, because there are two "F" activated letters (they
both have an underline under the "F"), Windows will not open the File
menu when a user presses "Alt-F"
Suggested resolution:
Change the "activated letter" for _F_avorites to F_a_vorites (move the
menu option from "F" => "a").
(I used to do a little Windows programming and in a few development
environments I would have changed "&Favorites" to "F&avorites" - not
sure if that's a generic Windows API syntax or not).
If this suggestion isn't clear, please just let me know. Again, I truly
appreciate this powerful and open source tool, and all of your
contributions to it. (And I welcome feedback if this email is not
appropriate to this list).
Sincerely,
Steve Midgley
