Enterprise: ContextMenu: Would like the ability to display Keyboard Shortcuts

Created on 13 Feb 2020 · 8Comments · Source: infor-design/enterprise

Landmark has a feature enhancement to add Keyboard Shortcuts to allow application users quicker ways to navigate through record, save records. etc..

On Context Menus where some of the actions that can be performed like Save, Next Record, Previous Record. Would like the ability to display the keyboard shortcuts to the far right of the menu. See screen shot for an example.

We talked about doing an API where you would plugin the hotkeys and it would either do the mapping or not https://github.com/infor-design/enterprise/issues/643

But i think this is a bit easier. In just providing a UI facility to put the hot keys in the menu manually in the menu.

This seem ok to you @kentonquatman or would you suggest some different treatment?

This works. It seems to be the standard treatment for this pattern.
My only comment would be: can we use keyboard icons instead of spelling things out whenever possible? I know there isn't a universal icon for ctrl, but cmd and shift could be kept short.

⌘⇧→ or instead of Cmd + Shift + Right
