This approach seems right for a first pass. If it's wrong, we'll all feel it when we use it, and the customers will scream until it's right.

Hint Box

Communicating spiffy features like hot keys to users is difficult. How is a user to know that (s)he can quickly select by hitting the 's' key?

One fairly easy solution implemented by lots of applications is to use a hint box like the one below. It's not uncommon to have a "tip of the day" dialog at program startup, and that should be simple to implement.

Someone implement this already :-) I have been doing all this selection testing without a bloody shortcut. Berk 14:26, 27 Jul 2006 (EDT)
