Keyboard Shortcuts

Ian Wehrman edited this page Jun 12, 2015 · 1 revision

This page will eventually contain a nice functional specification of how keyboard shortcuts are organized in Design Space.

Right now, it just contains notes on a few things related to keyboard shortcuts.

Design Space will have the following kinds of keyboard shortcuts:

  • Menu shortcuts -- all menus in Design Space will be entirely created by Design Space.
  • White-listed "fall through to PS" shortcuts (Note, these may get pre-processed by Design Space in some way. They're fall-through from the perspective of the user, in that they work nearly identically to regular PS):
    • At global level, for things like tool changes
    • At individual tool level (e.g. make brush bigger)
  • Design Space-specific global shortcuts (that aren't in menus)
  • Design Space tool-specific shortcuts

In Design Space, all keyboard input that isn't a white-listed keyboard shortcut (and isn't in a UI control of some sort) won't actually do anything.

However, we may want to capture and log keyboard input that we don't handle. May do a reverse lookup in the default key mappings to say "hey, we don't support doing [something]"
