Close open document with ctrl+F4

paulvdh
Hello,
There is a quite common shortcut to close documents: ctrl+F4. Now that zotero supports reading pdfs in the program, it would be convenient if these could be closed with ctrl+F4.
Best regards,
Paul

    Use Ctrl-w on Windows, the same as tabs in any browser

    Ctrl+F4 also closes tabs in any webbrowser on my (windows) computer, just not in zotero. In fact ctrl+F4 works also on most other program that I use (mainstream and obscure: MS office, matlab, acrobat). I never had to look for an alternative.

    Just like ctrl+W, ctrl+F4 dates back to the '80s, the difference is that ctrl+W has apple roots and ctrl+F4 was promoted by microsoft.

    My request is still to add ctrl+F4, at least on the windows platform, given its long-standing use.
    Alternatively the request is to add 'close tab' to the shortcut editor in zotero.
