0021752: [KS] Print shortcut is a little confusing if the user does not realise about focusing
Ctrl+Shift+P is the shortcut for the Print icon. The icon may be is not visible (as expected, when the printing feature is not available) making the Ctrl+Shift+P to open the browser's default action (Print also in most browsers). Although it is the intended design, the behaviour could be easily misinterpreted.
1. Login as Openbravo
2. Go to Sales Invoice window and select an invoice with no lines
3. While focus in header, the print icon is visible. If Ctrl+Shift+P is used, it opens the expected Print window.
4. Move to Lines, the print icon is not visible. If Ctrl+Shift+P is used, it opens browser's Print window.
No tags attached.

I understand your point, but the KS where developed to be as less intrusive as they could, so avoid as much as possible a default browser KS override

Said that, there are some cases with KS duality due to the lot of KS we have, and the limited keys set to operate them.

The case of this issue is not very severe: CTRL+SHIFT+P is the browser printing action in Chrome and private navigation in IE and Firefox. Although probably the browser shortcut is not very common, we don't want just to override this browser shortcut just because some few windows in the application that have the printing capabilities.

About the 'if the user does not realise about focusing' statement, if it is the case that the user doesn't know where he is, a CTRL+SHIFT+P in the wrong place is the less bad situation that could happen. Just for example, imagine that the user clicks in 'Delete current record' icon (or execute its KS), he will delete the wrong record.
