Console icon indicating copy to clipboard operation
Console copied to clipboard

PowerShell Console UX improvements (shortcuts, features)

Open alan-null opened this issue 8 years ago • 3 comments

Expected Behavior

  • [x] Ctrl+A - allows me to select whole text in the PS Console
  • [x] Ctrl+C - allows me to clear console whether selected text is empty otherwise it should copy text into clipboard (2nd part already works fine).
  • [ ] When I hold Shift key and press Left, Right keys I should be able to highlight/unhighlight text
  • [ ] When I hold Shift + Ctrl keys and press Left, Right keys I should be able to highlight/unhighlight text chunks

Actual Behavior

  • Ctrl+A - set position to 0
  • Ctrl+C - This is partially covered by Ctrl+K however I cannot clean all text when my current position >command.length
  • Shift + Left, Right - unsupported
  • Shift, Ctrl + Left, Right - unsupported

Some of the functionalities are missing, some of the shortcuts have different mapping than in Windows PS Console. Those are commonly used by my which I found, there might be more.

Steps to Reproduce the Problem

  • Open Sitecore instance
  • Run PowerShell Console
  • Test shortcuts

@alan-null I upgraded the terminal plugin. These now work:

Ctrl+A - allows me to select whole text in the PS Console Ctrl+C - allows me to clear console whether selected text is empty otherwise it should copy text into clipboard
