  • 1.  Missing features in U10 IDE: User keys

    Posted 20 days ago

    Hi 

    We've been trying and failing to get a satisfactory answer from Rocket support regarding the removal of user keys in version 10.3 IDE (we recently upgraded from 9.7).  Our devs are complaining that the lack of shortcut keys in the 10.3 is significantly slowing down development.  Not only that but with the huge change in the IDE we've decided to retain development in 9.7 and port the code to 10.3.  That's not ideal but it seems to be faster than simply doing it in 10.3.   

    Does anybody know if this feature is likely to be reinstated in a future version and whether there's going to be a patch for 10.3?

    Thanks

    Brendan

    I do not really understand which ?user keys? are missing....   

    If you mean accelerator keys ex: ctrl-f7  for compile, then you get used to it...  I think I read some of these are coming back in a future version.

    Personally, the sooner you get used to v10 the better.... Staying on v9 makes little sense unless you have compatibility issues.

    Accelerator keys, hot keys, shortcut keys, user keys... It seems a bizarre choice to remove this feature.

    I've heard that they may be coming back and I'm trying to find out which versions they are coming back in and whether there'll be a patch to introduce them to version 10.3.

    Well the answer to that last part is no, as 10.3 is no longer supported and
    all changes will therefore be made in 10.4 or higher versions.
