Description Christian Stadelmann 2016-06-10 19:12:47 UTC
Many applications, e.g. nautilus, epiphany, firefox, … have forward and backward navigation bound to mouse buttons and Alt+arrow keys, Esc key, ….

I suggest this behavior:
1. when showing details to a task, pressing "Esc" key should exit details.
2. When showing a list, pressing Alt+Left or the "Back" mouse button, go back to "Lists" view
3. When showing "Scheduled" or "Today", pressing Alt+Left or the "Back" mouse button, go back to "Lists" view
4. When Alt+Left, "Back" mouse button or the "<" button (back button in header bar" is pressed, remember the previous view/page. When pressing Alt+Right or "Forward", go back in history.

1~3: enthusiastically agree, those would be great. As for 4, that would be nice, but might require extra plumbing, so it's a bit of a cherry-on-top thing.

Unless ui definitions have an equivalent of gtk_widget_add_accelerator() that I have not seen yet, then I guess this would have to be done in the code using Actions.

bugzilla.gnome.org is being replaced by gitlab.gnome.org. We are closing all
older bug reports and feature requests in GNOME Bugzilla which have not seen
updates for a while.

If you still use gnome-todo and if you still see this bug / want this
feature in a recent and currently supported version, then please feel free to
report it at
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-todo/-/issues/
by following the guidelines at
https://wiki.gnome.org/Community/GettingInTouch/BugReportingGuidelines

Thank you for creating this report and we are sorry it could not be implemented
so far (volunteer workforce and time is limited).
