Windows 10 Keyboard support
#5
Thanks Mike.


> Yes, I can certainly work on this in a future update, after I've finished the annotations rework.
 That would be really great - if you want me to do some testing - please get in touch!

>You can assign the backspace or escape key to the "Return to Library" action to go back to the library screen.
>You can also assign the space bar to start/stop the metronome with the pedal actions.

Thanks, that's helpful. I wasn't aware that you could assign the Pedal Action settings could actually do that - I thought they just applied to extra pedals not keyboard keys...
I've set up the <spacebar> to start/stop the metronome - that's great.

>I think most users with a tablet aren't going back and forth between a screen/keyboard though, so the same inefficiencies aren't present. 
Yes, I understand that - although I don't think there are that many people out there using windows tablets now compared to windows laptops?
And the same problems that I'm having will apply to a  windows laptop using a touchpad or a mouse (or even if it has a touch sensitive screen I suspect)... 

>It sounds like you may need the screen with additional key/action mappings to be implemented for this to all work as you desire.
> as me just fixing the searching and song selection won't be enough by itself.
Actually just fixing the searching/song selection on it's own would be a great help to me, because most of the time when I'm going to the Library  list ((songs tab) I want to select another song... :-)

I've just assigned the L key to go back to the library when I'm in PDF mode.

So it would be really helpful to have the following functionality:
  • Have an assigned shortcut key to highlight the text in the find song input  box (maybe alt-F or ctrl-F) 
    then pressing <backspace> immediately clears the text and shows all the songs, or entering text starts displaying the filtered results.

    If there is only one returned filtered song result, then pressing <return> opens the pdf, otherwise pressing return puts focus on the first of the returned filtered results - then can use the <up> or <down> keys to navigate before pressing <return> to open the selected PDF...
I don't want to detract from the program because it's so feature rich
... but the above would be really useful for me (and maybe some other users)
 
Thanks for for your help - it's great to see that the App is in continuous development...


Best Wishes, 

Shaun
