Resolve for Windows UI Bug/Flaw

PostMon Sep 27, 2021 9:56 am

In Resolve for Windows 17.3.1, Keyboard Customization window, Commands >> Panels >> Media Pool, the 'Open File Location' shortcut is currently mislabelled as 'Reveal in Finder' ie the Mac equivalent.
Let's have a return to the glory days, when press releases for new versions included text like "...with over 300 new features and improvements that professional editors and colorists have asked for."

I believe that’s because the term in Windows is not the “finder.” So opening the location is accurate and makes sense

It's a tiny flaw/inconsistency... still needs fixing though and the devs don't know unless we tell them.
As is, some users who want/need to create a keyboard command for it will search for it, not find it, and assume it doesn't exist.
