Post From: Hot key for 'Modify Text'

How would you use a hot key ... you have to click the rectangle to get the menu so why not right click & select. Or do you? If you had a hot key and there were multiple possible boxes ... which rectangle (or text box should it select)? I guess it could select an active one if one was active. Or the last one selected. -- Note to admin, if you are doing hotkeys in this area ... I have an issue :) The Text Properties box that comes up when you modify text on an existing text box doesn't have a key based way to get from entering the text to pressing ok. As a result my python based hotkey to finish modifying text in the box has to move the mouse which I really try to avoid: elif "Text Properties" in window:
win_location = sh.xdotool.search("Text Properties") run('xdotool ' + 'mousemove --window ' + str(win_location)[:-1] + ' --sync 30 435', shell=True) # x.move_mouse_relative_to_window(x.search_windows(b'Text Properties')[:-1], 30, 415) x.click_window(0, 1) I'd love you to tell me that there is already a key & I just missed it (- I have tried a lot of combinations) but I can't seem to get from entry to the boxes menu buttons. Tab, which works in the enter text box would be a nice option for consistency. Date Time Of Last Edit: 2019-05-03 05:34:33
