Eclipse 3.3 – Keybindings
July 23, 2007 by Jim · Leave a Comment
Another improvement in Eclipse 3.3 is the new key bindings dialog. In 3.2 assigning keyboard shortcuts was always hit or miss – in 3.3 this is much easier – once you figure out how it works.
I went to add a keyboard shortcut for doing commits in SVN – I usually use ALT+C. But when I opened the key dialog: Window > Preferences > General > Keys while I could alter an existing entry I couldn’t figure out how to add a new one – until I clicked on the “Include unbound commands” option – then when I typed ‘commit’ into the filter bar – I saw the &Commit entry – I assigned the binding and it worked! Much easier than 3.2 – once you know where to look!
