Description
Markus Keller
*** Bug 67244 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** The user should not see plug-in IDs in the UI. Actually, the category name should *always* be rendered in the second 'Assignments' table. When I type a key sequence, I'd like to see in which category the assigned command is defined. Currently, I have to search through all categories to get this useful information. I agree, but "org.eclipse.jdt.debug.ui" is not a category name, it's an ID. *** Bug 69770 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** I like the suggestion of using the category name as well as the command name. Perhaps another column in the table, and simply remove the extra text from the drop-downs. The keys preference page is slated for a complete overhaul (again), so this might wait until then. Re-assigning to Chris McLaren as he owns all of the bugs related to the keys preference page. Just one more item to consider: It could happen that two independent plug-ins declare a command with the same name in the same category. In that case, the (NLSed) plug-in name could be appended to the command name. This would completely avoid rendering internal ids in the UI. Declaring an equally named and categorized command twice in a single plug-in should be considered a bug. *** Bug 70069 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** *** Bug 76193 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Taking all of Chris' [KeyBindings] bugs. This includes categories. See the current "Source" / "Source" duplication in M3. The preference page re-work has been pulled for the 3.1 plan to work on performance. Moving Dougs bugs Is this still a problem in 3.3? PW Yes. There are e.g. 2 'Source > Show Tooltip Description' commands, which are indistinguishable now. The internal id is not rendered any more, but that's even worse than showing it. Updated as per http://wiki.eclipse.org/Platform_UI/Bug_Triage PW Created attachment 154210 [details]
Patch v01
In the conflict viewer, we can display the category and when there is a conflict, we can append the descriptions of the commands.
