ShadowPHP Posted October 15, 2005 Share Posted October 15, 2005 I Hope they have the options to make it so you can do it using Alt+F4 - Its just... familiar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Menge Posted October 15, 2005 Share Posted October 15, 2005 also interesting is: Photoshop: Ctrl+W closes the currently open document Ctrl+Q quits the app (those are inherited from the mac version, prolly) Windows Explorer & Internet Explorer 6.0: Ctrl+W closes the window Ctrl+W also closes the currently open document in Word ;) funny how Microsoft inherits some shortcuts from Mac apps :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

turkishdelight Posted October 15, 2005 Share Posted October 15, 2005 The shortcuts for tab functions are about the same as Firefox's, somehow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Menge Posted October 15, 2005 Share Posted October 15, 2005 :huh: 586676772[/snapback] no i'm not bashing anyone :p i'm just saying, that in the mac, there's no Alt+F4 :p what does OS X uses? Command+W and Command+Q (which is basically Ctrl+W and Ctrl+Q) :) just that. i found it funny, because i used OS X for a while, then when i went back to using windows, i'd find myself closing documents with Ctrl+W and some windows with Ctrl+Q :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandon Live Veteran Posted October 15, 2005 Veteran Share Posted October 15, 2005 Umm, Ctrl+W closes the active window in most MDI apps, like Word/Excel/Photoshop/etc. It's also used by most tabbed browsers (Maxthon, Firefox, IE6 w/ MSN Toolbar). So I wasn't really surprised that IE7 uses the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LG1 Posted October 16, 2005 Share Posted October 16, 2005 is Ctrl + F4 just used for firefox, becuase i thought that closed tabs in IE7 also Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't be surprised if it worked in IE as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
