On Mac,soapUI Pro 3.6 doesn't follow standard UI conventions
I recently upgraded to soapUI 3.6 Pro on my Mac, running Mac OS 10.6.4. I find this release far more awkward and more difficult to use than 3.5.1. Among other things:
1) Cut / Copy / Paste keystrokes are inconsistent -- sometimes it's necessary to use the Control key as the modifier, other times the Command key must be used. On a Mac, the only keystrokes that should be supported for Cut / Copy / Paste are Command+X, Command+C, and Command+V.
2) Similarly, on a Mac the keystroke for Undo is Command+Z. Sometimes v3.6 responds to this key; at other times, it responds only to Ctrl+Z.
3) The same is true for "Select All" in a text field such as a selected Property, or a Source Path in a Property Transfer. Sometimes, it's Command+A, other times it's Ctrl+A. On a Mac, it should be Command+A.
4) Dropdown lists in Property Transfers don't work (previously reported, and answered)
As the old expression says, "When in Rome, do as the Romans do." Paraphrasing, "When on Mac, do as the Mac does."
