Hi,

the graphical Debian Installer provides a Screenshot button but I'm
unable to access it. There is no possibility to select this button
using TAB and cursor keys. I also tried the Print key without success.

that is intentional: when i wrote the GTK frontend, i supposed people using the keyboard only would appreciate skipping of the screenshot button during button tabbing, so that they could access the other interface's elements more quickly.


Yeah, but Jens seems to mention that tabbing doesn't work.

that's correct: i disabled tabbing to the screenshot button, but this can be re-enabled.

I suggest that Alt+S makes a screenshot (and the shortcut should be
visible in the button via an underlines S).

i think this can be done, but what about languages where "screenshot" is translated in a word that does not contain the "s" character ?
d-b people, should this functionality be implemented anyhow?



Would be a bad idea, yes.

Mapping it to the PrtScr key could be a good idea, as Jens suggested.

the screenshot button was indeed added because not all keyborards have a prtsc button.. :(
I don't see a way out, unless re-enabling tabbing to the screenshot button.
