I’m looking for some advise on which keys to use cross platform to add some features to LO. In particular mac vs PC keyboards.
-
First there is the current inability to remove a selection in a Base list-box using the keyboard. ref. It was pointed out that a mac does not have a delete key, (or at least many or most macs don’t). So what do mac users use in place of the Del key?
-
Also as a way to speed data entry of redundant items I’m trying to get a cross platform method of copying cells or lines, from the cells or lines respectively above them with a couple special key strokes. On a PC in both Calc and Access, Ctrl-tick does this for the cell above. But how do mac users do this, like in Calc (since Access is not on mac).
(To make matters worse, currently there is a bug in Base list-boxes that makes it so ctrl-tick does not work with them. It works with every other kind of control, but not list-boxes. Alt-tick is the current workaround, but is harder to type given where it is on the keyboard. We’re looking for the best alternative to fix this bug.)
Anyone with a mac out there who can help with this?
