Feature request: Allow users to customize shortcuts

I often use the shortcuts to close all tabs. It's (on a Mac) command-option-w. There's no way to do that without using both hands. I'd love to change it to Cmd-W, but I can't (at least I think I can't. I'm a new user, so please let me know if I'm missing something :-) )

Since I'm a mouse-type user rather than a keyboard-type user, I just click on the close all panels icon on the tool bar. Sorry I can't give you a more useful answer. You are correct Logos does not provide a mechanism to change shortcut key mapping.

I think I see a possible subscription feature! :-)

I think that would be a great feature to customize the shortcuts, too.

So vote at the official suggestion site Allow custom keyboard shortcuts | Logos

For example, I am baffled why it remains that...

Alt + D opens the Find (Command) bar instead of Documents.
Alt + F opens the Documents instead of the Find bar

Just have to memorize it backwards.

Alt + D opens the Find (Command) bar instead of Documents.

While I am baffled at why anyone would call the command bar "find" .. a function I rarely use it for although I use it heavily. The find bar is found optionally in the resource panel.

Alt + F opens the Documents instead of the Find bar

I would suspect the choice was originally spoken of as opening files and the name was changing without disturbing the muscle memory of users.

Goes to show how differently users think and how difficult building a good UI is.
