Confirm text entry with keyboard

Post by teegee » Sat Mar 11, 2017 5:19 am

Hi Andrew,

Just created a tiny pull request. I'm not sure what the best way is to communicate one-liner patches.. :)

I was going to add one more thing, which is to interpret ctrl-enter in the TE textbox(es) as a dialog OK/close. The problem is that I don't know what the proper place to put that is. I often place small text labels in my drawings, and it would be nice to do this with minimal mouse action. What do you think?

Cheers,

Rob

I've added the shortcut to TextDialog.ui:

Wow, that is a whole lot simpler than what I had in mind :)
Thanks!
