I currently use a set of keybinds (via autohotkey) to turn alt-(ijkl) into the equivalent arrow keys, this is similar to Emacs style.
I can use this scheme to navigate the text editor fine, but when a listbox for a suggestion appears, I have to use the normal arrow keys to navigate it as pressing alt immediately dismisses the list box.
Is it possible to add an option that would prevent this behavior, so that listboxes could be navigated in this manner? |

Are you familiar with, or ever used Vim? I ask because quite a few of our users use one of the Vim like extensions to make the IDE behave like Vim, and as I recall, Vim uses these movement keys as well. But it does it via movement mode and editing mode, so you don't have to use alt at the same time.
As for mapping keyboard shortcuts with Alt, personally I try to avoid this, because the IDE menu bar can change depending on the open file type, so the Alt letters that are "trapped" by the menu bar change as you change files. I take it you have never run into this problem yourself? |
