Especially if > that fits better with the HIG. other programs use Ctrl+U, and Dia has been using Ctrl+U leaving as it was would be more consistant. Three keys is more awkward There is nothing in particular that springs to mind that we could use Ctrl+U for at the moment, it aint broke dont fix it. I dont know how best to say this and not sound rude but _guide_ lines, not rules. I guess i should discuss it with some of the usability people and see what they think, although i bet some will fall on either side of the arguement but i am sure they will be able to help me decide one way or another. This all makes me think about any future 'better text widget' and ideally in any future text widget i would like to be able to use all the keybindings i have come to expect for word processing without needing to steal them from teh rest of Dia. Preferably this future text widget would be native to dia rather than just an embedded Abiword object but i dunno really. I am finding it really hard to get down and actualy code, sorry i did not properly finish my tinkering with the keybindings.
