Re: [Inkscape-user] shortcut for cloning on windows

I've just noticed that cloning is bound to alt+d. Alt will focus the menu-bar, though. So this shortcut is not usable.

We don't have a menu starting with D, of course, so this should work. Or do you mean that any pressing Alt goes to menu? Then you will miss all Alt+ shortcuts (there are many of them). I know that pressing _and releasing_ Alt activates menu in (at least some) Windows apps, but if you get the same result simply by pressing Alt and then some letter, there's something wrong going on. How do you use Alt+ shortcuts in other apps?
