Hi Heiko,

How do you know that it is Ctrl+Enter?

Experience. Found that out in the situation where Enter does not work
(e.g. Edit fields, but there must be more).

Typically, a dialog has a default button that is linked to Enter (and
another one to cancel the operation linked to Escape).

I know. Would be great if that alone worked in the dialogs where it
should be possible. Which is not the case. And then Ctrl+Enter doesn't
work either.
Maybe it is not the default button, but the Close/OK button.

This is done by checking "Can default"
and "Has default" in Glade. It would be very uncommon to assign any
other key combination to it and I'd assume the Ctrl key is just
ignored here.

I explained the situations where it's different.
And as written, it sometimes is Alt+Enter closes. E.g. Macro> Organize dlg.

(The default is not set to ok when the dialog has potential hazardous
results like "Do you want to wipe all data <Yes/_No_>".)

Makes sense of course.

Hi friends,

From dialogs in the past I know that Ctrl+Enter triggers the
default button, often OK. This is of course extremely convenient,
especially in situations where the 'o' is accelerator for one or
more widgets beside the OK button. This often is lacking now. Also
I sometimes notice behavior as Alt+Enter triggering the default
button. Makes me mad and is inconvenient.

This of course all in a situation with GTK3.

I'm of course willing to file one or more bugs on this subject.
But before doing so: has there been some design decision,
recommendation, or is there something else that I should know in
this area?

thanks! Cor
