Delete-Key functionality not working

[xykro]

Description
Using the Del-Key to delete nodes or branches does not seem to be working (as stated as shortcut in Edit >> Remove Node(s) or Branch(es))

Possible root of the problem
The problem seems to me that the focus is in the name/weight field. This leads to the delete input to be grabbed by this field instead of the drawing canvas.

Fix
Either forward the delete input to the canvas (no technical fix provided here), or remove the note of the shortcut (only mention is in the menu). Nevertheless, it would be a nice and convenient feature, so this issue could be marked as an enhancement as well.

Thank you!

The problem is that selecting a single node or branch will, as you say, put the focus in the weight field. As soon as you select two objects, DEL works.

The fix to forward delete to the canvas is an idea, but should only be done if the cursor is at the very end of the text field. If it is not at the end, it should work in the text.

Alternatively, the shortcut for deletion could be ctrl-x
