Comment @coderabbitai help to get the list of available commands.
With a comment selected, the arrow keys scrolled the view (↑ ↓) or turned the page (← →), so a text box, rectangle or line could only be placed with the mouse. Now an arrow key moves the selected comment a screen pixel, and ⌘/Ctrl or Shift and an arrow ten, as Edit text nudges objects; up is up on screen whatever the zoom, the page's rotation and the view's. Each press is one undo step (Edit::MoveAnnotation). The keys are taken before the view's navigation, which has them back once nothing is selected. Text markup stays with its text, and a locked comment where it is. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

863-905: 🎯 Functional Correctness | 🔵 Trivial | ⚡ Quick winAdd transformed-view coverage for comment nudging.
comments::nudge_keysconverts one- and ten-screen-pixel offsets throughscreen_to_viewandview_to_user, and its contract covers zoom and page/view rotation.arrow_keys_nudge_the_selected_commentonly runs at the default transform. Theathelper also assumes no rotation. Existing zoom and rotation tests cover other comment operations, not keyboard nudging. A conversion regression can therefore pass undetected. Add a transform-aware case, such as 150% zoom with 90° and 270° rotation, and assert one- and ten-pixel movement in each screen direction.🤖 Prompt for AI Agents

- Line 1854: Update the arrow-key nudge checks in the comment movement logic to
exclude input whenever Alt is pressed. Apply the Alt guard to both the
Command/Shift modified branch and the Modifiers::NONE branch, leaving the
existing step increments unchanged.
- Around line 1847-1874: Update the arrow-key handling in nudge_keys to count
and consume every matching press rather than checking only whether any press
occurred. Use count_and_consume_key for COMMAND, SHIFT, and NONE modifiers,
applying 10 units per modified press and 1 unit per plain press.
Review comments at @crates/ui-egui/src/lib.rs:
- Around line 3026-3027: In the key-nudging flow, change the `else if` following
`object_ui::nudge_keys` to a separate `if` for `comments::nudge_keys`. This lets
comment nudging handle unconsumed arrow keys when no object is selected, while
preserving object handling precedence.

Count every matching arrow press in the frame.
consume_key consumes all matching key events but returns only one boolean. When key-repeat events deliver multiple presses before nudge_keys runs, the code adds only one movement step, so later presses lose their movement. Use count_and_consume_key to add one step for each consumed press.
Suggested fix

- step += direction * 10.0;

Count presses of a key. If non-zero, the presses are consumed, so that this will only return non-zero once.
Includes key-repeat events.
This uses `Modifiers::matches_logically` to match modifiers, meaning extra Shift and Alt modifiers are ignored. Therefore, you should match most specific shortcuts first, i.e. check for `Cmd-Shift-S` (“Save as…”) before `Cmd-S` (“Save”), so that a user pressing `Cmd-Shift-S` won’t trigger the wrong command!

Apparently these events are only used internally by the text widgets, but I'm guessing a lot of people would like to have them by default and not have to implement them manually.
There's also undo and redo, which are not events but have hardcoded shortcuts in the `TextEdit`:

@wareya , here's my workaround for this issue, and the "any modifiers will do" approach egui (and many other) UIs take:
/// similar to egui's `consume_shortcut()`, but with exact matching (not `logical_matching()` so
/// users's fingers don't accidentally learn the wrong modifiers for shortcuts they try because
/// they learned them in other apps, say, then report a bug when a new shortcut with those
/// modifiers is created and they think the app broke).
fn consume_key(input_state: &mut InputState, modifiers: Modifiers, key: Key) -> bool {
let mut found = false;
input_state.events.retain(|event| {
let is_match = matches!(
event,
Event::Key {
key: ev_key,
modifiers: ev_mods,
pressed,
..
} if
*ev_key == key
&& ev_mods.matches_exact(modifiers)
&& *pressed != (matches!(key, Key::V) && modifiers == Modifiers::CTRL) // react to Ctrl-V released, else react to presses. Work around https://github.com/emilk/egui/issues/4065
);
found |= is_match;
!is_match
});
found
}

I tried consuming the key and then listening for the Key event with the modifiers, as some workarounds were suggesting, but it didn't work for me as the key was still never arriving. I switched to handling `egui::Event::Copy/Paste/Cut` events directly, which kinda worked but was firing intermittently, sometimes not at all. I just added frame based debouncing for each time one of those events was handled. That's the only thing that worked for my case.

consume_key behavior #1274

I have recently discovered this crate and was looking for ways to use modifiers. By looking at the demo I found the EasyMark editor that features toggles with ctrl/cmd + the corresponding key, which is very close to my use case. The editor makes use of `consume_key`, but when testing it, pressing the key B causes both the insertion of the letter B and the bold action to happen.
Pressing ctrl+B produces the expected behavior. As this may not be very clear I attached a screen capture to illustrate what happens. EDIT This happens only in DEBUG mode, in release mode the editor works fine. Wondering what causes the issue, but I have not been able to find it. I noticed that ctrl+Z works correctly, so I considered using the same approach as in `text_edit.rs`:
if ui.input().modifiers.command_only() && ui.input().key_pressed(key) {
[...]
};
Instead of the one in `easy_mark_editor.rs`
if ui
.input_mut()
.consume_key(egui::Modifiers::new().command(true), key)
{
[...]
};
My guess is that either there is a bug in `consume_key` or EasyMark editor should use the same approach as `text_edit.rs`. I can reproduce the issue both in Linux and Windows and I am available for any further information.

Exclude Alt-modified arrows from comment nudging.
In egui 0.36.2, consume_key ignores extra Alt modifiers. Alt+Arrow can therefore match the Modifiers::NONE branch, and Alt combined with Shift or Command can match the modified branches. Exclude Alt before all nudge checks.

Review comment at @crates/ui-egui/src/comments.rs at line 1854:
Update the arrow-key nudge checks in the comment movement logic to exclude input
whenever Alt is pressed. Apply the Alt guard to both the Command/Shift modified
branch and the Modifiers::NONE branch, leaving the existing step increments
unchanged.

Call comment nudging after object nudging.
When EditText is active on a document that allows modification, the else if prevents comments::nudge_keys from running. This state is reachable because entering Edit mode does not clear the selected comment. If no object or image is selected, the object handler does nothing, so arrow keys leave the selected comment unmoved. Use a separate if so object handling keeps precedence while comments still receive unconsumed keys.
Suggested fix
if self.quick_tool == QuickTool::EditText
&& let Some(doc) = self.session.get(self.views[i].id).filter(|d| d.allows_modification())
{
object_ui::nudge_keys(ctx, &mut self.views[i], doc);

+ }

comments::nudge_keys(ctx, &mut self.views[i], &doc.info);

In the key-nudging flow, change the `else if` following `object_ui::nudge_keys`
to a separate `if` for `comments::nudge_keys`. This lets comment nudging handle
unconsumed arrow keys when no object is selected, while preserving object
handling precedence.

What this changes
With a comment selected, the arrow keys scrolled the view (↑ ↓) or turned the page (← →), so a text box, rectangle or line could only be placed with the mouse. Now:

Anything a reviewer should look at first
With #3484 (several comments selected) the arrow keys should move the whole selection, as one "Move comments" step. That is a few lines on top of whichever of the two lands second; I have it working on a branch with both and will send it then.
