C.<p>Okay, I don't know if this is a <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/GTK" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GTK</span></a> thing, a <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/Gnome" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Gnome</span></a> thing, a <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/LibreOffice" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LibreOffice</span></a> thing, or a <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/Cinnamon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Cinnamon</span></a> thing, but I just discovered probably the most user-hostile "helpful" behaviour I've seen in a piece of <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/software" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>software</span></a> in a long, long time.</p><p>The find-and-replace dialog in the LibreOffice <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/spreadsheet" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>spreadsheet</span></a> - I haven't checked the remainder of the apps - has the typical buttons for "Find All", "Find Previous", "Find Next", "Replace", and "Replace All".</p><p>... and no obvious keyboard shortcuts for them. Nothing shown, no <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/affordances" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>affordances</span></a>, no typical underlined or bolded letter in each button's label text. Doing a large amount of selective search&replace (don't ask <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/Etsy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Etsy</span></a> cough cough) is incredibly painful. There's *got* to be <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/keyboard" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>keyboard</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/shortcuts" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>shortcuts</span></a>, right?</p><p>Here's the <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/evil" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>evil</span></a>: the shortcut keys are not indicated *until you hold down the alt key*. Then it underlines the appropriate letter in each button's label, but those underlines disappear again when you release the alt key.</p><p>So you can study this bloody dialog box until the cows come home and never see a hint of a keyboard shortcut, even though it has them.</p><p>#$*&!^%@ Who thought this was a good idea?</p><p><a href="https://mindly.social/tags/usability" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>usability</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/accessibility" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>accessibility</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/KeyboardShortcut" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>KeyboardShortcut</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/UI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>UI</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/UX" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>UX</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/Linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Linux</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/FreeSoftware" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FreeSoftware</span></a> <a href="https://mindly.social/tags/OpenSource" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>OpenSource</span></a></p>
