Shortcuts

Post by aliakhavan89 »

Thanks so much for adding this option! One can easily define a shortcut through macOS System Settings. I would've assigned ⇧⌘R but it seems to be reserved (hard coded) and it acts like ⌘R. 'Show in Window Explorer' is also available on Windows. Very cool!

On a related note, 'Save As...' appears twice in the menu functions. This creates a conflict in keyboard shortcut and the key will be assigned to both. I think it would be better to append Analysis_Toolset to its options, like New_Analysis_Toolset, Open_Analysis_Toolset, Save_Analysis_Toolset, etc.

In fact, under File, we have New 'Model', Open 'Model', which are more aligned with what those options do. I think this would easily solve the user-defined shortcuts conflict.

Finally, I wish we had more commands under 'Simulation' (e.g., Run, Optimize, Sensitivity, etc.) and 'Tools' (e.g., Causes Tree, Causes Strip, Graph, Sensitivity Graph, Tables, etc.).

Thanks a lot!
