Keyboard settings list is non-alphabetical

Post by Thy Grand Voidinesss »

Under the

Tools > Options > General > Keyboard

there is a quite long list. Its starts with "File | New Search Window", goes through "Edit | Undo" and "View | Menu Bar", ending with "Preview | Focus Preview" - i.e. is not an alphabetical one

I understand the reason behind this: grouping. Its the old age split between "groupies" and "alphabetics"; like in the case of e.g. CSS coders [https://css-tricks.com/organize-your-cs ... betically/]. But would it be possible to add there a simple button, that would switch from one kind of sorting to the other?

And when we are at it: maybe also include a third one- a user custom order? That last one however would require more buttons / functions, for moving of entries on the list

There wasn't many commands in Everything 1.4.
Currently this list is sorted by appearance.


I can see the need to improve the organization of this list for Everything 1.5 as there are many new commands.

I will look into sorting this list alphabetically.
Thank you for the suggestion.

Simply type (partly) what you are looking for in the Show commands containing: box.
That will filter the list of what commands are shown.

But of course

Thank you for pointing to me this obvious feature sitting right there in the plain sight
