Ctrl-A should definitely be select all. Dia has a use for the concept of select all, so it should definitely follow the outstanding convention rather than reinterpret Ctrl-A for something else and assign a different key to the select-all function. I don't think Ctrl-> (Ctrl-.) and Ctrl-< (Ctrl-,) are difficult... uncommon, but not difficult. This, of course, is assuming that Ctrl-. and Ctrl-, would be equivalent, instead of Ctrl-> meaning Ctrl-Shift-. . > Finally found the HIG (not easily found from Gnome.org). Where is it?

Prior to 1.0, but I'd agree that a new release sooner rather than later would be good. _______________________________________________ Dia-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/dia-list
