Description

Coming from Confluence I really love that "E" button on my keyboard.
Whenever I hit redmine and try to edit a ticket, pressing the "E" key makes me wonder, why Redmine not offers this handy, candy key to open the edit view of the ticket.
.
Pls add a keylistener to ticket view switching from VIEW to EDIT, when hitting "E" on the keyboard.
.
Would love to support you, testing the feature.
.
Thanks for taking my humble thoughts into consideration.

Redmine already provides the edit ('e') accesskey on the issue show view (among others). Using for example Chrome on Windows 10, you'd use 'shift + alt + e' to edit an issue (or a document, news, wiki page) from its respective show view.

Hi Mischa,

thanks for your fast feedback.

shift+alt+E != e
I find hitting just "e" much more intuitive.

If this does not persuade you, just close the ticket.

best regards,
Ralf

I understand and agree, but that is just how it currently is. The current implementation of access keys depends on HTML accesskey attributes which won't let you bind to just 'e'.
Alternatively, this can be accomplished by utilizing JavaScript-based shortcuts that do not require the use of Ctrl/Alt/Shift keys like regular HTML access keys do. This is something beyond the scope of your request and is already being tracked via issue #6846 (and implemented by the redmine_keyboard_shortcuts plugin).

This is not a matter of persuasion, just of the facts mentioned above :). Closing as a duplicate of #449 and #6846.
