Staff Client - duplicate access key

[George Duimovich]

EG 2.0.8 (Staff Client)

"Alt-a" shortcut key links to "Fast Item Add" -- but it also links to "Actions for this Record"

We've had a report of this from our cataloging staff.

Hello, we are still running the XUL staff client, and our cataloger just mentioned this issue to me. I looked at it and it looks like just editing

/openils/var/web/opac/locale/en-US/lang.dtd

Finding "staff.cat.marcedit.fastItemAdd.accesskey" and changing it to a different letter will fix this.

I set ours to "T" which didn't seem to be used on the MARC Edit screen.

This was making it impossible to access the Actions for this record via keyboard shortcuts, so something like deleting the bib record using only the keyboard wasn't possible.

I just wanted to make note of this in case anyone else runs into this who is still using the staff client, I know no more development/changes will be applied to the old staff client, but this is a pretty easy local fix.

Josh
