I'm used to sending messages with Ctrl+Enter, but other users may prefer Shift+Enter or just plain Enter. Previously the option was just
invertEnterKeyboolean, which didn't allow any flexibility, so I replaced it with a three-choice option: Enter, Shift+Enter and Ctrl+Enter being the send message choices. Add newline combos are Shift+Enter, Enter and Shift+Enter respectively.I ended up fixing the emoji/mention pop-up behavior as a side product. If any of the three combos are pressed, the pop-up is handled and the event is accepted. This makes it impossible to accidentally send the message if a pop-up is open.
If an Enter combo didn't match, it's passed to the next event handler.
The old
invertEnterKeyis migrated to the newsendMessageKey, so this change doesn't change the existing preference.Tested with Linux only, but this should work fine with other platforms as well, thanks to Qt keypress abstraction.
Fixes: #1445 #788 if I'm not mistaken.
