more than one hotkey
« on: November 27, 2012, 08:29:05 »
i see only 'assign', 'remove' and 'resolve conflict' buttons in keyboard customization when configuring keys so i think there's no way to add another hotkey to an existing one..

Correct. Multiple hotkeys for the same command is not supported.
But there is a workaround. Create a User defined command of type "Internal Command" and pick the command you want and then save that command and then add a hotkey for this new command (that will call an existing command)

I would like to have direct support for it. But the problem is that a internal redesign is needed if multiple hotkeys should be supported. (And also a redesign on how the hotkey customization window looks and works)  And since my time is a bit limited I think that the workaround is good enough for now.
