Add documentation to keyboard shortcuts

[Pander]

Please add (a reference to) documentation on keybaord shortcuts http://ridjam.deviantart.com/art/Inkscape-0-91-Keyboard-Advance-Shortcuts-518481672

Perhaps the author is willing to have his work included upstream in reopo of Inkscape.

Is this a proposal for the website [1] / the inkscape-docs project [2] (to include a link at the top of the current (generated) keyboard shortcut reference, or to maintain and include a copy of that SVG drawing), or do you ask that this SVG drawing of the default shortcuts (on a default en_US keyboard layout for PCs) should be shipped with Inkscape (and the local copy be linked in the 'Help' menu)?

Note that the drawing is based on a default en_US keyboard layout for PCs - even if there were versions for other keyboard layouts (and vendors), hooking them dynamically to what the user currently has defined as input device might be tricky (and thus render the image partially not relevant for many users not using en_US layouts, or systems with vendor-specific or custom keyboard layouts).

This is the 3rd or 4th of this kind of "keyboard map" I've seen. So if not this artist, maybe one of the others. (Although this one may be the most up to date.) If none of those artists are willing, I'll bet we could find one who would agree to do it. (I might even take up the challenge.)

Yes, it would be nice to have such a "map" in the official documentation!

I have send the author a message to get in touch here.

We could even make a script that manipulates the source to generate versions for QEWRTZ and AZERTY keyboards.

In the mean time, the tutorials category could be used for uploading the image, if the licence permits it. Can someone ask the author to make an account and upload the picture, and also explain how that can be done?

[Pander (pander)]

I have asked the author twice but no reply. Perhaps contact the others to use their work as a template and generate from that A4 and Letter cheat sheets for QWERTY, AZERTY and QWERTZ with each Inkscape release.

Brynn, where did you see others?

[Hachmann (marenhachmann)]

We might want to use this (or a similar thing) for an Inkscape leaflet:
