| Summary | 0000387: Search feature missing F9 Abort on Manager New Job Menu | ||||
| Description | Unable to search for items with a space in their name in manager new job screen when space is set to exit menu. 40d had F9 Abort as an option on this menu. | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | To reproduce: 1-Set the spacebar as the key to exit a menu (on title screen, key bindings) j (job list) m (manager) q (new job) Start typing: rock coffer When you hit the space between rock and coffer, you will exit the menu. | ||||
| Additional Information | I realize escape is set to be the menu escape but I absolutely hate that setup. Leaving a menu is something done many, many times while playing DF and the spacebar should remain an option. | ||||

Better yet is when you type "weapon rack" - not only it closes the screen but it also cancels a job order so quick you don't know what it was :) So, yeah, have the same problem. On the other hand, this is a question of interface consistency - i like that now you always use the same key for the same function. You can't really map it to F9 in this screen, because then that would be a nonsensical inconsistency for people using ESC as the cancellation key. By the way, what would happen if I map the cancellation key to for example "t"? Won't I be able to cut trees? I suppose so. So perhaps this is not a bug, it's just a consequence of bad key mapping on the user's part. |
