Summary: HistoryView swallows menu key bindings (Alt-F,N,P)

Description Neale Upstone CLA 2011-03-09 09:31:04 EST
Build Identifier: 0.12.0.201103040937

When the history view is open, the normal Alt- behaviour for accessing menus is overridden, which is somewhere between confusing and annoying.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. With History View closed, press Alt-F and the file menu is activated
2. Context menu -> Team -> Show in History
3. Press Alt-F and the find field, if visible, is made the focus.

There is no option to change these key bindings... but there should be.

Same problem as bug 331321?
Comment 2 Neale Upstone CLA 2011-03-22 04:50:58 EDT
Yes.  Not sure how I didn't manage to find that one when I searched.
