please improve some windows hotkeys...

[arifg]

this is a topic for improving windows hotkeys for affinity...

I'm a fan of windows hotkeys so can you improve some hotkeys?...

i.e. can you change this to "C" letter instead of "L" ?

I believe (dredging up from my dubious long-term memory) that the “L” is used for “Close” as that’s the standard shortcut key letter in Windows for that sort of button in a dialog because “C” is used as the standard shortcut key letter for “Cancel”.

(I don’t have proof of this, just a vague memory from a long time ago.)

If they were the same then the user could accidentally “Close” a dialog when they pressed “C” expecting to “Cancel” it.

Even in dialogs where there is only one button, it’s useful for this to be standardised across all dialogs in an application (and across the OS).
