Hi,

Is there a short cut key to switch to the Palette View and insert the object
there by keyboard?

Thanks,

Kev.

Does anyone know if it has this short cut key? It is the accessibility
issue I have to fix, but I think it is better if GEF can provide the short
cut key to access the palette view.

Thanks,

Kev

With diagram canvas in focus:

- Shift-Tab to select Palette
- Shift-Tab again to select arrow in corner of palette and press <Enter>.
(If palette is hidden)
- Tab to select first element in drawer.
- Navigate with arrows to element you wish to create
- <Ctrl-C> over tool palette entry that has focus
- Shift-Tab to get back to the diagram focus
- <Ctrl-P> to paste onto diagram surface.

Hi Steve,

Does it mean we have to implement the copy and paste ourselves? I try the
Shape sample, it does not support copy and paste, but the logic sample does.

Thanks,

Kev.
