HotKeys for Tools stopped working

Post by mo »

Hello,

My Ctrl+1, etc. hotkeys have stopped working for some reason that I cannot find explained in the help files. Anyone have any idea what I should do to regain this function?

Try re-assigning them:

Configure - Preferences - Keyboard

Do you have any hotkey programs that might be setting a global Ctrl+1 hotkey?

You might try reassigning Ctrl+Shift+1 or Alt+Ctrl+1 to see if those work.

OK, probably MudGuard had this in mind, it being what looks like the proper process:

What I was doing was entering the Ctrl+1 in the input box, which turned on the Assign button, then I clicked the Assign button.

What I needed to do was to first remove the current Ctrl+1, then go through the above.

Thanks Syberslug...Santa Cruz?

EDIT: Well it may be that the hotkeys never stopped working! It looked to me as though they had stopped working again this morning, so I reassigned them all again and they still would not work. It seems that if you have the Tools Menu open while you press the control keys they do not work. Makes sense unless you are still in the process of remembering whichiwhicchi
