My APPs support the shortcuts of Q10.
Shortcuts enhance the productivity, but as a developer you have to think about what's the best to provide a seamless and safe workflow.
On Touch devices - if a user deletes a record you normaly don't ask him "do you really want to delete".

This webcast shows you what happens and also an easy solution: add UNDO and your user is happy.
Easy in this case means easy for the user, but easy for users means some or more work and rethinking of…

have fun with the video and if you're a lucky Q10 owner: have fun with a device without competition.

HINT: the device I'm using in this video is NOT the real Q10 - it's a Dev Alpha C - the developer device to test apps for Q10.

Thanks to Heiko Behrens CamHolder (camholder.org) you can easy follow which keys are typed on the Keyboard.
