macOS shortcuts / “Close View” placement

[Ingolf]

As far as I’m aware, these are facts — not just ‘like, my opinion, man’

macOS standard shortcuts are ⌘W (close front window) and ⌥⌘W (close all app windows).
Illustrator follows the same pattern.

Right now VectorStyler puts Close View in the File menu and gives it a shortcut that clashes with the macOS default. Also, “Close View” ends up closing the document when it’s the last view, which makes view vs document muddier than it needs to be.

Suggested tidy-up:

• File > Close Document = ⌘W
• Close View should live in the View (or Window) menu alongside the other view-related commands
• Close View should be disabled/greyed out when there’s only one view
• Closing the last view shouldn’t be a “view action” — closing the document should remain a File/⌘W action

Cheers and a late happy New Year!

@Ingolf I added this to the backlog

@Ingolf I checked this in other apps (AI, AD), and the "Close" command is the same as the Close View in VectorStyler, it closes a single view of a multiple view document
