Problem
First of all, thanks for the great tool! I have tested many AI VScode clients and this is the best in terms of features and user experience (especially the sleek UI that integrates very well with the VSCode workbench).
I am trying to use keyboard as much as possible, including when using continue.dev. This is my typical workflow:
continue.focusContinueInput
shortcut)Solution
For step 4, 5, and 6 above, would be nice to have some shortcut commands.
For step 4:
First of all, we need a way to move focus from the prompt field to the whole continue.dev view by using keyboard. From there I think up and down arrow or even PgUp and PgDown should work. I tried to get the focus manually to the view, and the arrows work fine. EDIT: there is a command for that:continue.continueGUIView.focus
. Does not have a default shortcut but can be assigned. To go back to the prompt field:continue.focusContinueInputWithoutClear
)For step 5:
We need two things:
Alt
+[
andAlt
+]
seems to be pretty common to go next/previous for things like this.For step 6:
A step further after getting focus to the code box, we should have a cursor to select text and copy (so the code box should behave like a read-only text editor).
I am not sure if we can use monaco elements/classes, e.g. monaco editor for the code box , so that the styling will simply follow the one that is active in the workbench (eg. a focused element will have
--vscode-focusBorder
color). Would be great if that's possible.The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
