Ctrl-Alt accelerators are commonly used for window manager. Evo should not use them.

Sigh! we have run out of short cut keys for this !!

;)
Comment 2 Karsten Bräckelmann 2005-12-13 19:34:38 UTC 
Ah, well... This is neither an explanation nor an excuse for using Ctrl Alt...

btw, if you comment and admit it's shitty, what about accepting the bug? *sigh*
Comment 3 André Klapper 2005-12-13 19:39:07 UTC 
hmm. confirming, it seems. ;-)
Comment 4 André Klapper 2005-12-13 19:43:09 UTC 
<http://developer.gnome.org/projects/gup/hig/2.0/input-keyboard.html>:
"Do not use Alt-key combinations for shortcut keys, as these may conflict with
window manager or menu access keys."

Hmm we have removed it. Fixed in head.
