Request for Option to Diable Type-ahead Search/Jumping When Comments Pane is Active and a Letter In Keyboard is Pressed

[samermaan]

Hi,

I noticed in the V11, when the comments pane is active and I press on the "C" key on the keyboard while a comment is selected there, it now jumps across all the comments that are named (under "Subject" ) starting with the letter "c"! The problem is that I have assigned the "c" key for Copy Command and " v" for Paste command. Because when doing takeoffs, it makes so much faster to add named comments for the same drawing objects to get their total count in the drawings.
Can you please add this option so that I can disable it.
It is disturbing my workflow big time.

Thanks!
Sam

Thank you for the suggestion - and sorry for the trouble this has caused. I have raised the issue with the Dev team for review, and will keep you posted when i hear back from them.

Hi samermaan

I couldn't reproduce the issue you described. What I did, step by step:

1. via R-Click on toolbar > Customize Toolbars > Commands - set the 'C' shortcut for 'Copy' command and 'V'-shortcut for 'Paste' command
2. open the doc with many comments (rectangles and ovals) with subject that starts from 'C' or 'c' letter.
3. set the keyboard focus to the Comments pane and hit the 'c' key.
For me it just copies the selected comment and does not jump to the comment that starts its subject from 'c'.

What did I miss?

Hi Vasyl,

When the focus is on the comments pane and you click on a comment from there, if you have the copy command shortcutted to "c", hitting "c" would not copy it, it would jump to first alphabetical comment subject that starts with the letter c.
Before, i used to hitt "c" from the comments pane, and it just copies it, similar to where the focus is on the main screen and I hit "c" to copy a comment.
The above also would apply to paste "v", but i mostly use "c" in the comments pane.

Thanks,
Sam
