~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Shortcut for closing all figures
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Shortcuts for closing all figures now also work for the classic toolbar.
There is no default shortcut any more because unintentionally closing all figures by a key press
might happen too easily. You can configure the shortcut yourself
using :rc:`keymap.quit_all`.
