Use Ctrl+W for closing application

Open tstrahler opened this issue 1 year ago • 1 comments

After a while of using Tangram, I started to notice the shortcut for closing the application is Ctrl+Q. This is different from most applications having Ctrl+W as shortcut for closing. It is especially annoying if you are used to the keyboard-only workflow.

With this issue, I suggest changing the behavior for this shortcut to adapt to almost all other applications. I would be happy to create a PR for this.

I think you're simply using the wrong shortcut if your intention is to quit applications.

Ctrl+Q is quitting Ctrl+W is closing the window or tab

Almost all applications support Ctrl+Q

But I'm happy to support Ctrl+W for closing the Window in Tangram. It will be equivalent to Quit for now because there can only be one window for now.

Feel free to open a PR.

  • [ ] Add the shortcut to the shortcut window
