Dec 07, 2012Yeah, nice shortcuts. HOWEVER - what is the shortcut for posting a comment - you know when you write a comment and then you want to post it and then you hit Enter - but that doesn't work. And then you try Alt+Enter but that doesn't work either. I mean, what's up with that?
I don't want to use the goddamn mouse each time I post a comment.
Thanks!

Dec 07, 2012Every file diff tool that I know of has keyboard shortcuts for going to the next diff block/line. It's highly annoying in Crucible that I have to click on those little arrows along the side to move to the next diff.

Jan 08, 2013I agree with the previous two commenters. Keyboard navigation to view changes would be very useful.

Jan 13, 2013Using 'click' as 'add comment is HIGHLY annoying and non-standard. Why that choice??
This causes two SERIOUS usability issues:
a) This means I can not scroll through the code without going to my mouse to go over to the scrollbar. I am a keyboardist: this just impacted my speed/productivity.
b) I can not copy code from the source. this is a true showstopper.
Yes, I tried the following:
alt Hold down then click and drag to select source line contents.
What that does? It ends up selecting lots of extraneous text, and I cannot control it.
Why did you change the default browser behavior for cut and paste and scroll??? That's a serious negative usability choice.
Please inform how to revert the "click to add comment" so I can get normal click back.
thanks.

Mar 21, 2013How about some shortcuts for scrolling up and down in the current file? Like, the arrow keys.
Crucible is horrible to use without a scrollwheel right now.
