Support for Ctrl+Backspace

dgnadt

For many Windows programs such as text editors and web browsers, Ctrl+Backspace is a keyboard shortcut that allows you to delete the entire word to the left of the cursor. Combined using with Ctrl+Left Arrow or Ctrl+Right Arrow to jump between individual words and also holding Shift to highlight one word at a time, I use these same keyboard shortcuts daily.

Navigation with Ctrl+Left Arrow/Right Arrow works in Bluebeam Revu, but Ctrl+Backspace does not. When you hit Ctrl+Backspace, it returns an ASCII control character instead of deleting the word to the left of the cursor.

Adding support for the Ctrl+Backspace keyboard shortcut is a small addition that I can see making a large benefit for keyboard shortcut users.
