Hey @BenLee, great to get your commentary as always.
Yes of course “ctrl” + “x” is a terrible choice for this, as that is about as universal a shortcut for “cut” as they come!
The way I use the keyboard, I’ve gotten used to keeping the fingers around the more readily “typeable” characters by memory, so things like “tab,” “shift,” “ctrl,” etc. In Excel for example I found it was easy for me to use the shortcut “ctrl” + “;” to quickly insert a date, moreso than if I would need to reach over to “F2” which I also used a lot. Keys such as function keys, or “esc” will take me a bit out of my flow. I’m also use at times a MacBook Pro with the infamous Multi-Touch bar, and the “esc” key is not there at times by default.
I have to say though in hindsight this is a very small priority for me, so I apologize if I made it appear a high priority for my usage of Coda. It’s not. And the fact that you guys have an “x” in the right-hand corner is very useful if you are navigating around with the Mouse.
And speaking of priorities, if I could selfishly ask if you guys have any thoughts on this post below:
Being able to minimize the Details window to the right side of the screen, which is a big feature of the new Jira, among other apps, I think would help a ton with my UX in Coda. Very useful to see rows in context when you can see most of the underlying table, or board in the case of a dev stand-up, for example.
Hope this is useful commentary, and thanks again!
