Hotkeys to view configurations
« on: October 25, 2013, 05:21:17 am »
Is there a way to set hotkeys to view configurations? I have about 6 different view configurations I use frequently, but switching by L-click_on_list-enter seems time consuming.

Can this be done with configurable keyboards like those manufactured by Preh for example? If so, then how does that work? Is there some sort of hidden api or driver for Altium/Preh combination, or does the keyboard only generate key strokes (in which case I'd also have to assign some hotkeys to view configurations)
I love the smell of FR4 in the morning!

Maybe this helps:

To create a shortcut

1. right click on main toolbar (just underneath menu bar)
2. click on "Customize..."
3. in the tab "Commands" (normally allready open), click on the tab "NEW" at the bottom
4. in the 'Action' plane after "Process", click "Browse" and find and select anything usable
5. in the 'Action' plane after "Parameters" click on the dropdown and select anything usable
6. in the 'Shortcuts' plane, click in the region after 'Primary', and type the key, or combination you want to as shortcut

Done!!
