Survey: Keyboard shortcuts change

[floscher]

For the next minor release v1.6.0 I'm planning to rewrite the map modes (see #21). While doing this, I'd also like to change some of the keyboard shortcuts. My goal is syncing them as much as possible with the ones of the org.openstreetmap.josm.actions.mapmode.SelectAction (the select mode for OSM data in JOSM core).

Below is my proposal on how these would change, what do you think about this?

Meaning	Current shortcut	Proposed shortcut	Shortcut in SelectAction of JOSM core
Select	Click	Click	Click
Move	Drag	Drag	Drag
Add to selection	Ctrl+click	Shift+click	Shift+click
Toggle selection		Ctrl+click	Ctrl+click
Rotate	Shift+drag	Ctrl+Shift+drag	Ctrl+Shift+drag
Select the whole sequence	Doubleclick	Doubleclick
Join two sequences		C	(C is shortcut for joining/Combining ways)

If you have an opinion on these changes, please share it here, so I can take it into account.

Also, feedback on the other keyboard shortcuts is welcome:

• Ctrl+, opens the MapillaryLayer or toggles it as the active layer if already existent
• Ctrl+. downloads the sequences in currently visible area regardless of download mode
• Do you have a suggestion for a keyboard shortcut to toggle the MapObjectLayer?

Thanks in advance for your input!

In retrospect I'm not sure doubleclick was the best shortcut for selecting the whole sequence. I remember selecting the whole sequence by accident a few times.

:+1: This happened to me too, especially when using a notebook touchpad.

What about Alt Gr + click? Or maybe even better, Ctrl + A + click?

I would be happy with the proposed changes, looks okay for me.
