Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 31653
keyboard shortcuts stopped working when in Hebrew keyboard layout
Last modified: 2013-08-07 15:03:05 UTC
When in Hebrew keyboard layout, attempting to use a keyboard shortcut (like CTRL+C, CTRL+S etc.) doesn't work anymore. This used to work at least up to 680m41. To repro: * open OOo and creat a new document * Type some Hebrew text * When still in Hebrew, try to save using CTRL+S Actaul result: The Hebrew letter ד (which is at the same location as the English S) is entered at the insertion point- no saving is done. Expected result: OOo should save the document. Comments: This used to work fine in 680m41 and all older versions of OOo. Israeli users expect this to work- these combinations are NEVER localized, and changing the keyboard layout before doing an action and then changing it back again is NOT a thing users are going to do. If this is not fixed, I perdict that this issue will become a top FAQ for Hebrew users. I am using XFRee 4.3, which hasen't changed between my using m41 and installing m47
This is also a problem when using OO in Mac OS X.
reassign open l10n issue to new default owner.
FT: Anything we might have changed in the light of localised mnenonics?
MMP>FT: No, "localized keyboard shortcuts" have no effect on Hebrew. (Spec at http://specs.openoffice.org/g11n/menus/LocalizedShortcuts.sxw)
.
FT: Cannot reproduce this feature (m106), please cross-check. Thx
