Description Miguel de Icaza 2005-09-10 12:38:54 UTC
In older versions of evolution there was a 3-keystroke setup to flag messages as
Junk, a fairly common operation.

In the new version menu layout has been given priority over functionality and
flagging a message as Junk takes 4 keystrokes Alt, m, k, j.

Please add a shortcut for this, or move this useful operation to a toplevel.

Operations like "Move to Folder" and "Copy to Folder" I have never used in my
life, I typically just drag and drop it.
Comment 1 André Klapper 2005-09-12 15:43:25 UTC
a patch for setting shortcuts for junk/not junk is available at
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/attachment.cgi?id=50482&action=view and could not yet
get in because of the UI freeze.

so either this is a duplicate of bug 260734 or (if you insist on moving it to a
higher level in the menu structure) this is a dependency to bug 310550 (adding
the latter one). it's up to you, miguel... (good luck with the mono meeting at
the pdc, make it a big success!)
Comment 2 Srinivasa Ragavan 2005-09-13 03:58:27 UTC
Looks fine. We need to commit it to HEAD as well as 2.4 branch.
Comment 3 Shreyas Srinivasan 2005-12-16 08:20:43 UTC
committed to head. Not sure if it should go into 2.4
Comment 4 Harish Krishnaswamy 2005-12-31 06:23:31 UTC
The added accelerator is already in use and assigned to cmd 'MessageForwardAttached'. Reverting the patch. I suggest the list of accelerators be consolidated, rationalized and committed in a single shot *after* review.
Comment 5 André Klapper 2005-12-31 14:37:24 UTC
harish: very fair point. going to review the shortcut because i already have to do that partially to fix the quick reference card once again...

hmm. we also have to update the "what's new in 2.6"-welcoming mail. :-/
Comment 6 André Klapper 2005-12-31 14:41:53 UTC
time to review the work the sun hackers did at http://go-evolution.org/Evolution_Keyboard_Navigation_Specification , will take a look at it
Comment 7 Srinivasa Ragavan 2006-01-13 07:53:38 UTC
Now Control +J will mark as Junk and C+S+Junk will mark as not junk. Closing the bug as fixed.
