Ctrl+Backspace to delete word

[This topic is migrated from our old forums. The original author name has been removed]

This is standard on most platforms, but it does not work in dbvis editor. Pressing ctrl+backspace (alt+backspace on mac) should delete all characters to the left of the cursor, up to the first whitespace character. If there are whitespace characters to the left of the cursor, then it should delete the whitespace characters upto the first non-whitespace character.

Re: Ctrl+Backspace to delete word
This still does not work for me. I switched to linux in the meantime, maybe that has something to do with this. Running Ubuntu 14.10 with default desktop environment (Unity).

Re: Ctrl+Backspace to delete word
Hi Alexandra, The default mappings will be fixed, but you can change the mappings for this today yourself. Please see the Users Guide: http://confluence.dbvis.com/display/UG92/Changing+Keyboard+Shortcuts The shortcut for deleting all characters to the left of the cursor is found in the Editor Commands category and is named Delete Preceding Characters in Line. Best Regards, Hans
