2015-05-06 18:46:46 Samu Nuutamo description When looking at the shortcut list the only modifier key which is obvious to me is the "Ctrl" key. Symbols which I can't find on my keyboard: ⌘ I know this is a mac symbol, but i'm running a pc like majority of elementary users. I don't know what key it represents. ⎇ Maybe this is "alt"? could be easily mistaken for a "shift" as both have an arrow going upwards Other symbols which exist on my keyboard but still confuse me because I have not seen them used before in text: ↹ I couldn't figure this out without looking at the keyboard ⇧ This is probably the easiest to figure out, but still a bit weird to see it as a symbol Proposed solutions for this usability problem: a) Replace symbols with textual versions (like "alt", "shift", "tab", etc) b) Show a legend in all the shortcut views which tells what the symbols mean I'd personally like (a) as there is no ambiguity.
