Rebinding of EditDelete causes misbehavior

Postby bscotchshenani » Wed Jun 25, 2014 10:30 pm

Heyo!

I just did a massive remapping of my inkscape hotkeys to increase my output speed. This included moving the Delete function off of backspace and onto the number 4. Curiously, though it works fine to delete objects and paths in their entirety, it no longer allows me to delete NODES, but rather always deletes the entire object, even when specific nodes are selected!

Currently I'm getting around this with CTRL+ALT+CLICK on nodes to delete them individually, but damn if I don't want my selector box back. I've been digging around in the verbs and keybindings files and help docs but haven't found anyone with the same issue. Rebinding deletion to my left-hand is pretty critical to make this whole thing sing, and any help would be greatly appreciated - even if it's HEY YOU'RE STUCK WITH CTRL+ALT+CLICK.

Thanks!
