Hi,
I just found the following bugreport:
https://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1540211&...
------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Alt" keycodes used twice in german translation
Some (I found 2, but there might be more)
key-combinations "alt+<letter>" are assigned to some
operation, but actually open the menu that happens to
start with the given letter.
The two are "Klon Erzeugen" (Create Clone), assigned to
"Alt+D", while Alt+D opens the "Datei" (File) menu, and
"Kopie als Bitmap" (Copy as Bitmap), assigned to
"Alt+B" that opens the "Bearbeiten" (Edit) menu.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Did you already have to deal with this in your translation? I cannot
decide which usage is more important. Alt-D and Alt-B are
well-established accelerators in GTK applications. Maybe Inkscape
really needs to refrain from using keybindings with Alt as Alan
suggests in his comment to the bug.
Cheers,
Colin
