Wishlist hot key

[82d]

I think it's very convenient to link the list to hotkeys. ctrl+w it will be convenient.

It's Alt+W for the _Wishlist.
and Alt+S for Add / Remove Wi_sh

I am against using Ctrl+W because the shortcut is physically too close to Q on a qwerty keyboard which quits the program.

I agree, the combination of ctrl + w is not suitable. we need another combination.

can be done on only W

[slook]

not really, because then it wouldn't activate if you were typing into one of the Filter text entry boxes. Also un-modified letter keys tend to be prone to causing conflicts.

What's wrong with the current Alt+W shortcut binding?

[82d]

you need to include this in the hotkey help. the topic can be closed. alt+W is normal.

[slook]

Good idea, I will add both Alt+W and Alt+S into a new Wishlist category in the Keyboard Shortcuts window.

There are other shortcut changes in #1587 that I am waiting for @mathiascode to review/approve before I submit further changes to the Shortcuts window. As both these issues are low priority it might take a while. Thank you for your feedback on this.

[mathiascode]

You can't hardcode Alt mnemonics in the shortcut window, since they aren't consistent across translations.

[slook]

I suppose Alt+Return (File Properties) isn't affected by translations, but of course letters may well be. Thank you for pointing this out.

ctrl+F now a is displaying the filters line. what if it reassigns to Wishlist?

This doesn't make sense. Ctrl+F should always triggers some form of search or filtering, not wishlist.

Agreed, I think the current Alt+W and Alt+S mnemonic shortcuts make sense the way it currently is. The solution would be to find a way of getting the accelerator programmatically for insertion into a tagged property within Shortcuts.ui at runtime, such as gtk-label-get-mnemonic-keyval() but I don't know how to implement this.
