Hi.

there's a problem with the keyboard shortcuts in localized versions:

In the german localisation of OS X, the common shortcuts for bold and italics text formatting are Apple-b and Apple-i. In NeoOffice/J (as like in OOo, I suppose), they are "localized": Apple-f and Apple-k. I suppose, this problem will occur in other languages, too.

Is it difficult to make NeoOffice/J to use the "OS X-standard-shortcuts"?

Thomas, you know about the Tools>Configure>Keyboard stuff, right? You can fix it by changing them per module per OOo major version Sad

But I don't know that we know where those settings live in the source so they could be fixed from the start. If someone did know/find out, this would be key to our fixing shortcuts to be Mac OS X standard--at least within the limitations of the keys OOo feels can be used as shortcuts!

Smokey,

I didn't express good enough what I mean. While writing my initial posting, I've thought at a german Neo/J newbie, who's starting Neo for the first time and who wonders why the default OS-X shortcuts don't work in Neo/J. My point is to have the default OS-X shortcuts in Neo/J "out of the box".

If we can't change it in the source code now, we should may be place a hint in the Neo/J setup?

And I wonder if it would make sense to localize the "Tips and Hints for Using NeoOffice/J" in the Wiki, or is it too early for that?
