Hi Norman,

The PathFinder application is using the default wxWidgets label (wxWidgets is the GUI library PathFinder is based on) for the (internal) wxID_REFRESH (aka Refresh) menu entry on the main View menu, and unlike the default New (internal wxID_NEW) and Print (internal wxID_PRINT) menu entries on the main File menu, apparently the default label for Refresh does not define any accelerator key (e.g. Ctrl+R) nor shortcut key (e.g. Refresh).

With any post to SDL XPP Ideas it would be good to be very specific about what you are requesting when you say "to have a shortcut". Are you looking for Refresh to have an assigned accelerator key or shortcut key, or both?

In the meantime, all is not completely lost as far as navigating to Refresh using only the keyboard. If you do Alt+V, it will bring up the View menu with the Refresh entry highlighted (because it's the first entry on that menu). If you then type Enter (aka Return) it should activate the Refresh. The Up and Down arrow keys, followed by the Enter key, can be used to navigate to any of the other sub-menu entries (although all the rest on the View menu have an assigned shortcut key).

Very good, Norman.

But please do post to SDL XPP Ideas a specific request "to have a shortcut" for the Refresh function in PathFinder, detailing whether you are looking for Refresh to have an assigned accelerator key or shortcut key, or both.

It's really just an "oversight" that we didn't notice that the default wxWidgets Refresh label did not have either of those defined, and it's useful all around for all menu items in PathFinder to at least have a shortcut key.

However, if you don't enter the request in XPP Ideas, we're not likely to remember to schedule a task do something about it (i.e. other fires and other priorities always will take precedence when there is no "formal" request to justify giving it attention).

Very good, Norman.
