[TC 11.02] Sync dirs: Keyboard shortcuts for Show buttons don't work when editbox has focus

[white]

* Open Synchronize directories
* Press Shift+Tab twice so the editbox for the folder name at the right has focus
Now, normal access keys (Alt+character) and F2 do work, but keyboard shortcuts for the Show buttons (Ctrl+Shift plus L, E, N, R, D, or S) do not work.
(The keyboard shortcuts do work when the combobox in the middle has focus)

This is intentional:

29.08.23 Fixed: Synchronize dirs: Ctrl+Shift+L/E/N/R/D/S to toggle displayed result types wasn't working before comparing, and only in result list (now it works everywhere except in path edit boxes) (32/64)

They are being ignored in the edit boxes because they may be used for special key (text) input.

A line in HISTORY.TXT doesn't make that obvious. Perhaps you should add it to this line in the help:

The buttons can be toggled also by keyboard, with the combination of Ctrl+Shift plus L, E, N, R, D, and S.

They are being ignored in the edit boxes because they may be used for special key (text) input.

Shouldn't this special key (text) input also be possible in the combo box in the middle then?

I will add a note to history.

The main problem with the path edit fields is auto-complete, which opens when you press one of these hotkeys. There is no auto-complete in the middle box.

I assume you mean help?
