@User649609, I would expect alt-E to always bring up the Edit menu since Sierra (and other programs) have accelerator keys for &Edit. Same for alt-F for &File, etc. That's part of the Windows keyboard menu accelerator navigation system. Sierra has these accelerators for its main menu: FECATPDGWBL These alt+ keys will be handled by the system. CW does not have an accelerator key (c is taken by Chart, and w by Window) A little programming tangent... Programs can of course do their own actions and detect keystrokes with PreTranslateMessage/WM_SYSKEYDOWN and handle other keystrokes with OnMenuChar/WM_MENUCHAR/MNC_CLOSE. Personally, I would choose something not already in-use by the main menu. |
