I remember GTK had editable keyboard shortcuts, I wonder why it was axed together with "tear off" menus, and multi-column menus.

- zxzax 5y agoJust my observations: - Editing shortcuts within the menus is not really discoverable, except by accident, it's too easy to accidentally change a shortcut that way and screw up your program, and the UI around saving/loading/resetting them is not good - Tearoff/multicolumn menus were seen as a workaround for programs that have too many huge and/or nested menus, where something like a toolbar or a command palette would be more appropriate
- formerly_proven 5y agoKDE has a standard keyboard shortcut editing dialog, it's perhaps not the most beautifully designed dialog, but it certainly works quite nicely.
