Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Calendar :: Sunbird Only, defect)

Description

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20040913 Firefox/0.10.1
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20040913 Firefox/0.10.1

Sunbird's menus (File, Edit, etc.) use "control" as the modifier (ie: Select All
= ^A) rather than "accel". This screws up platforms that don't use "control" as
"accel", such as Mac OS (see: http://www.mozilla.org/access/keyboard/#codersummary )


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start Sunbird on Mac OS.
2. Click on "File" menu.
3. Note "New Event" shortcut is "^N" rather than "⌘-N"

Attachment: rev0 - trunk - patch changes modifiers from "control" to "accel"

This fixes the problem on Mac, and should leave Windows/Linux alone.
