Would it make sense to add a visible preference for this inside of claws (Configuration->Preferences->Compose->Writing->Editing->"Cursor key up leaves message body" [better name welcome])? I find the new behavior to be really odd for a multi-line input text field. Hi Michael, After a short discussion on IRC, we've decided not to accept this patch: we don't want to add hidden preferences for every little change we introduce, and also, there is a (more) usable alternative to go on top of an email, which is the Home key :) |
Created attachment 1407 [details] Patch to introduce preference "cursor_up_leaves_body" Claws 3.10.1 brought a new feature that makes the cursor up key leave the message body when it's already on the first line and jump to the subject line. The attached patch introduces a preference called "cursor_up_leaves_body" that defaults to true. If set to false (0), the pre-3.10.1 behavior is restored.
