UI Design / Flow - what should “Save” and “Cancel” do? When it comes to massive data entry tasks, you're definitely right that you want to minimize clicks. I still wonder, though, if the table format is the best way to achieve this. I could see optimizing a form interface by including a button that lets you save the current record and immediately start a new one with a single button click. The advantage of a table is to the see the context of the surrounding rows while editing. If this isn't needed, I think it's still not worth it. Even if it is needed, there may be ways to include some context on the same page as the form. |

UI Design / Flow - what should “Save” and “Cancel” do? It sounds like you've given this some thought. I may have oversimplified. Just out of curiosity, can you provide a specific example of something a user might need to do where the table is the better editing tool? |

How would you display a key equivalent to the user? @Bobby, I agree about Ctrl-C and Ctrl-V. They work very especially well if you mouse right-handed. That way, you can select some text or objects with one hand while preparing to execute Ctrl-C with your other hand. |

How would you display a key equivalent to the user? @Marjan, as I said, keyboard shortcuts are not a critical feature for most users. Some users do prefer keyboard shortcuts. I think keyboard shortcuts should be provided because some users prefer them, and some users need them (for example, because they don't have the ability or motor skills to operate a mouse). |

How would you display a key equivalent to the user? @Marjan, Did you read the article I linked to? It's fascinating how people think keyboard shortcuts are so fast. They feel like they are, but most of the time, they aren't. |
