For most commands, the Open Group either has no advice or + agrees with Microsoft. + + The emboldened letter plus Alt is Microsoft's recommended choice, and + we recommend supporting it. For an Apply button, for example, we + recommend QAbstractButton::setText(\link QWidget::tr() tr \endlink("&Apply")); + + If you have conflicting commands (e.g. About and Apply buttons in the + same dialog), you must decide for yourself. + + \list + \i \bold{\underline{A}}bout + \i Always on \bold{\underline{T}}op + \i \bold{\underline{A}}pply + \i \bold{\underline{B}}ack + \i \bold{\underline{B}}rowse + \i \bold{\underline{C}}lose (CDE: Alt+F4; Alt+F4 is "close window" in Windows) + \i \bold{\underline{C}}opy (CDE: Ctrl+C, Ctrl+Insert) + \i \bold{\underline{C}}opy Here + \i Create \bold{\underline{S}}hortcut + \i Create \bold{\underline{S}}hortcut Here + \i Cu\bold{\underline{t}} + \i \bold{\underline{D}}elete + \i \bold{\underline{E}}dit + \i \bold{\underline{E}}xit (CDE: E\bold{\underline{x}}it) + \i \bold{\underline{E}}xplore + \i \bold{\underline{F}}ile + \i \bold{\underline{F}}ind + \i \bold{\underline{H}}elp + \i Help \bold{\underline{T}}opics + \i \bold{\underline{H}}ide + \i \bold{\underline{I}}nsert + \i Insert \bold{\underline{O}}bject + \i \bold{\underline{L}}ink Here + \i Ma\bold{\underline{x}}imize + \i Mi\bold{\underline{n}}imize + \i \bold{\underline{M}}ove + \i \bold{\underline{M}}ove Here + \i \bold{\underline{N}}ew + \i \bold{\underline{N}}ext + \i \bold{\underline{N}}o + \i \bold{\underline{O}}pen + \i Open \bold{\underline{W}}ith + \i Page Set\bold{\underline{u}}p + \i \bold{\underline{P}}aste + \i Paste \bold{\underline{L}}ink + \i Paste \bold{\underline{S}}hortcut + \i Paste \bold{\underline{S}}pecial + \i \bold{\underline{P}}ause + \i \bold{\underline{P}}lay + \i \bold{\underline{P}}rint + \i \bold{\underline{P}}rint Here + \i P\bold{\underline{r}}operties + \i \bold{\underline{Q}}uick View + \i \bold{\underline{R}}edo (CDE: Ctrl+Y, Shift+Alt+Backspace) + \i \bold{\underline{R}}epeat + \i \bold{\underline{R}}estore + \i \bold{\underline{R}}esume + \i \bold{\underline{R}}etry + \i \bold{\underline{R}}un + \i \bold{\underline{S}}ave + \i Save \bold{\underline{A}}s + \i Select \bold{\underline{A}}ll + \i Se\bold{\underline{n}}d To + \i \bold{\underline{S}}how + \i \bold{\underline{S}}ize + \i S\bold{\underline{p}}lit + \i \bold{\underline{S}}top + \i \bold{\underline{U}}ndo (CDE: Ctrl+Z or Alt+Backspace) + \i \bold{\underline{V}}iew + \i \bold{\underline{W}}hat's This? + \i \bold{\underline{W}}indow + \i \bold{\underline{Y}}es + \endlist + + There are also a lot of other keys and actions (that use other + modifier keys than Alt).
