Re: [evolution-patches] Fix for 35814

[Anna Marie Dirks <anna ximian com>]

Hi Dobey, 

Thank you for caring about this bug. :) I'd like to suggest a simple
change: 

"i" isn't a terribly good letter to use as an accelerator, because it is
so darn thin. (the "i" just doesn't take up enough horizontal space for
an accelerator beneath it to be optimally visible.) See the following
section of the HIG for the "official" word on the matter: 
http://developer.gnome.org/projects/gup/hig/1.0/userinput.html#keyboard-navigation (scroll to the "Choosing Access Keys" section)

How about this: 

1. Use "e" as the accelerator, and Ctl+Shift+E for the shortcut
2. Change "New Folder"'s shortcut to Ctl+Shift+F, so that it will be
consistent with its accelerator. 

Does that make sense?
cheers, Anna
