Hi all, I made a new draft of the calendar keyboard navigation. main changes is:1. split the shortcut into four category: day vew, week view, task and generl
2. Prefer to use Alt+non-letter for the actions of moving something.Prefer to use Ctrl+Alt+letter for the actions of invoke other operatons than moving.
Please have a look and give comments. Regards, BolianTitle: calendar keyboard navigation
