- ctrl-` and ctrl-shift-` opens the toolbox
If only one instance of the toolbox is allowed, and will always be on top, then might it worth having ctrl-` work as an on/off toggle?
The same applies to all other dialogs. Do we want to make all ctrl-shift shorcuts toggles?
Advantages of toggles:
- you can switch off a dialog without first moving focus to it
- Illustrator behaves the same way (toggles)
Disadvantages:
- may be counterintuitive: I see a dialog and I want to move focus to it to use some of its widgets. Now I press e.g. ctrl-shift-f and focus is moved to the dialog. With toggles, I will have to press ctrl-shift-f twice to do the same (once to switch it off and then on again). The same situation is when one dialog obscures another: now I press the shorcut of the bottom one and it jumps to top at once, with toggles I will have to press it twice.
Any comments?
