Re: [Ayatana] Hiding shortcut keys in menus



Okay, I'm a big fan of this suggestion :)

I think annihilating the shortcut key text is a bit overkill, and having
it appear when the user highlights the menu item will do the opposite of
what you want. Jumping and blinking text is a terrible, terrible
experience.

I like the idea of shrinking, italicizing or greying out the offending
GTKAccelLabel to demonstrate that it is not the focal point. Hylke Bons
points out, in his GNOME bug report[1], that Moblin has this going on
Right Now in its GTK engine.

directly:

Doing the same for Human and other themes may be pretty straight-forward
and wouldn't create an unnecessary delta with upstream.
