Hotkeys for managing panes like in TC

[imTheSupremeOne]

I'm new user to XY and came from TC. I'm a keyboard user, and because of that have some problems with transfering completely to XY.

I'm probably really got used to TC, and yes, you can change hotkeys and design user defined commands, but I believe that XY can do better too with it default settings.

It would be really cool if there was 2 predefined keyboard layouts — for mouse and keyboard users. When you are using mouse you have less than a half or left side of keyboard, and opening floating preview at F11 is a hell.
You can change this one in the settings, but there is some stuff that you can't and some shortcuts that aren't bind to anything, but they are not customizable.

To be said, there is also really great amount of features that you can customize, and it's really easy to get lost in them. I checked a lot of stuff, checked .ini file(with search + common words) but didn't find the ways to make it work as I'd like...

There is also some silly shortcuts. If I remember correctly ctrl+alt+shift+F10 switch active pane... just like pressing Tab...


Here's my "wishes" that I cannot customize:

As a keyboard user, I'd like to make selection just by pressing Space, without holding Ctrl all the time I move around.

I think it should be doable using User-Defined Commands, but you cannot bind it to shortcut that I want... But I'd like to open stuff in panes using ctrl+arrows. In TC it's made in really intuitive way. For example, you are in left pane, so:
- When you press Ctrl-LeftArrow you will open what currently in right pane, but in left.
- When you press Ctrl-RightArrow you will open something or just pane in right tab...

There is already some keybinds, but they are turned off by default and are not made in this intuitive way.

There can be a lot of variants of this feature, like do it open a new tab in pane or replace current selected; do you open a current directory, or folder under selector... But I think in TC it's already made in great way.

Also if there were a tweak in .ini that would allow me to customize uncustomizable shortcuts it would be great.

Are you finished praising TC for it's glory? If it's so great, why at all do you want to switch?

Only that you can use tab to switch panes...
Configuration | Tabs and Panes | Dual Pane | Tab key
Tab between both panes only

As a keyboard user, I'd like to make selection just by pressing Space, without holding Ctrl all the time I move around.

Menu - Tools - Customize List - Sticky Selection

- When you press Ctrl-LeftArrow you will open what currently in right pane, but in left.
- When you press Ctrl-RightArrow you will open something or just pane in right tab...

Fine. Only that e.g. ctrl - left/right is used by Windows to move (horizontal) scrollbars. Maybe not
the best idea to make this user bindable and take away it's original (and expected) function...

Then change them?

Not praising anything; spend a lot of time customizing TC too. Somewhere it's were stupidly orthodoxy, and I like the set of XY provided features, comparing to TC.

Fine. Only that e.g. ctrl - left/right is used by Windows to move (vertical) scrollbars. Maybe not
the best idea to make this user bindable and take away it's original (and expected) function...

With default settings it's not working in Xy anyway... I'm using PgUp/down for that. But whatever, I just think that user should be able to bind whatever keys, at least, with a tweak option.
