Add shortcut to exit main window while keeping the filter

Right now it is possible to keep a filter while closing the main window by using the window [X] button. I want to have a shortcut for this.

With version 2.0 (?) the feature "Minimize on Esc" was introduced. When turning the feature off, it is possible to multi reset any filter, without exiting the main window. To complete the feature i suggest to introduce Shift+Esc to exit the main window, but keep any filter.

Er, how about Alt+F4?

Or your "Show main window" hotkey?

You're absolutely right! I was so focused on my (ESC) workflow, that i did not realize i could actually use these two keys. I have now turned off "Minimize on Esc" and am curious how it will affect my workflow. Thanks Alex. Please close/decline this post.

Alex, would it be possible to add Shift+Esc as an alternative to Alt+F4? After switching my configuration yesterday i realized, there are occasions when it is practical to use Alt+F4, but Shift+Esc would be much more convenient. Why? As said i have turned off "Minimize on Esc". Still i use Esc a lot to clear the filter. And while my fingers are on the Esc key, it sometimes makes sense to press (Right-)Shift to exit. Thanks. Thomas


No problem. I'll reopen the issue then.
