Thanks a lot for your willing to help the development. We need more people with different background to make LibreCAD better.
This feature could be a good starting point for you to get some taste of LibreCAD source code.
we have a wiki(probably outdated) on building from source:
http://wiki.librecad.org/index.php/LibreCAD_Installation_from_SourceTo add a shortcut, just add a few lines in the source code file:
qg_dlgmtext.cpp
someting like:
QAction* new =QAction(this);
action->setShortcut(Qt::ALT + Qt::Key_O);
connect(action, SIGNAL(triggered()), this, SLOT(accept()));
basically, ALT_O should trigger the slot function accept()

Hi, I'm an industrial electrician/programmer. I use Librecad for circuit diagrams and cabinet layouts.
I program in ladder, Python, Lisp (long time ago :)), and a little bit of C / C++. I am happy to help out if I can!
Can you create new hot key combinations? I would like to be able to close the multi line text dialog box using Alt-O.
Cheers
Buzz
