Title: Problem with Hotkeys
Post by: Tom on December 31, 2016, 15:36:54

I defined two User defined Commands:

LeftPath2CmdLine
(Custom Commands, MC.CmdLineSet TEXT=${leftpath})

and

RightPath2Cmdline
(Custom Commands, MC.CmdLineSet TEXT=${rightpath})

Then I assigned Hotkeys:
LeftPath2Cmdline = STRG + ß
RightPath2Cmdline = STRG + AKUT
Altap Salamander has a similar function on this hotkeys and I miss this so much in MC. Therefore I don't want to switch to other hotkeys.

The defined hotkeys work only in the MC session where I assigned the hotkeys. Next time when MC starts both hotkeys do not work anymore. Tested in MC 6.9.1 (build 2306) 64bit in german Windows 10 Professional with german keyboard layout (but MC still in english language).

Any hint how I can get this hotkeys to work?

What is STRG ? AKUT ? what keys are that ?

Some key combination comes in conflicts with internal things and do not survive a restart. But it is rare.

STRG = Abbreviation for "Steuerung", the german Word for Control. So this is the CTRL-Key. Akut is this: ´

ß and ´ are on german keyboard the two keys left to backspace.

Here you see the german keyboard layout:
