moving figures with keyboard [message #184323] Sun, 12 June 2005 10:00 Go to next message

Hello,

is it possible to configure a GraphicalViewerKeyHandler such that
figures can be moved around by keyboard (preferrably with arrow keys)? I
tried this by implementing a SelectionAction and registering it for the
arrow keys. However, this seems to collide with the key handling done by
the GraphicalViewerKeyHandler I am using.

I think I remember this being mentioned somewhere on this list, but
couldn't find it..

thanks,
christian

Press 'dot' and then you have moving and resizing anchors which You can move
by arrow keys.

capabilities of GraphicalViewerKeyHander?

PERIOD key is handled by the SelectionTool. Only general
selection/navigation is generic and is in the key handler. Even so, key
handler only receives a key if the tool decides to give it the event.

Wow; that's awesome.

Know where the selection tool's keyboard shortcuts are documented?
Are there any other cool GEF keyboard shortcuts that I should know about?
Can you use the keyboard to select things in the palette for example?
