Shortcuts wherever possible

Open gokatz opened this issue 7 years ago • 6 comments

First thing first. I'm a big fan of Scrimba. Thanks for all the awesome works 🙂

I just thought of a little improvement. Can we have a keyboard shortcut to resume the video from playground mode as it will more comfortable than searching for mouse and pointer! Entered playground mode – Press Cmd+Enter to resume watching 😉

shortcuts for frequent actions on any software / app / thing

is always a good thing

i second this.

Entered playground mode – click play to resume watching is a bottle neck.

My first intention was to hit ESC (to lose focus) and hit SPACE again :smile:

This would be a great quality of life improvement. Right now it's very prone to pause if you click anywhere on the screen during playback. However if you want to resume play, you have to look for the small play button at the button left screen which is rather inconvenient.

Also running into this issue a lot as I go through the new Scrimba Bootcamp. I was surprised looking through the macOS shortcuts that resume video playback is not supported:

I understand that this implementation is more complicated than typical video controls. Just wanted to throw my hat into the comments as well!

+1

right click to pause/play would work too, since it's not being used for anything else.
