Comment (by yurik):
Thanks SuperMMX, they did work, and I thought i knew all the shortcuts in
the windows universe. :)
Which underscores my point: Shortcuts should be traditional for the
platform, not to the specific UI toolkit. All tree controls in windows use
left/right keys to open close branches, and users should be presented with
the consistent behavior -- in other words, users should not know HOW the
program is built, what toolkit was used, or any other irrelevant info.
Unless there is a good reason not to use what everyone is accustomed to,
UI should be consistent.
Thansk!
