    Description

      Current situation or problem:

      All apps will eventually include an option to display keyboard shortcuts in a modal, like the below example for eHoldings.

      The order in which keyboard shortcuts are displayed in the modal should be consistent across applications and their presentation should also be consistent. Applying the three guidelines below will achieve this.

      Guideline 1

      Shortcut key combinations should be presented in Camel Case with spaces between the components.

      Key combination  
      Ctrl + Alt + E correct
      Ctrl+alt+e incorrect
      ctrl + alt + e incorrect

      Guideline 2

      Shortcuts should be described and ordered as per the below list of actions, to achieve consistency across applications.

      If a shortcut is not relevant to an app it should be omitted.

      A shortcut can be renamed to make it more relevant. For example in eHoldings "Create a new record" is renamed to "Create a new custom package or title record".

      1. Create a new record
      2. Edit a record
      3. Save a record
      4. Duplicate a record
      6. Expand all accordions
      7. Collapse all accordions
      8. Expand or collapse an accordion
      9. Go to Search & filter pane
      10. Open keyboard shortcuts modal
      11. Close a modal or pop-up
      12. Copy
      13. Cut
      14. Paste
      15. Find

      Guideline 3

      App specific shortcuts should be displayed at the top of the list, or inserted into the list at a point where they make most sense.
