One other feature looking for with VNW if there is either a plugin or an option like with AutoHotkey has a Hotkey Button in it's form editor for setting up hotkeys and puts whatever key you press into a variable.

Thanks! :)

Really really enjoying VNW btw!

I tried the plugin npKeys but the example did not work for me. :(

What I am looking for is a box that when press any key combo will show in that box that key such as CTRL+S or CTRL+ALT+DELETE as an example and then put that into a variable.

Lower example. Create as many buttons as you need.

Thanks for the examples.

It would be nice and much easier if we had within VNW under the tools menu a Hotkey Box button similar to AHK (AutoGUI) that is resize-able as well as capturing key presses each time and will save it to a variable that all more of a requested feature for VNW.

Really would be a welcome addition to an already awesome program.

If your curious what I'm talking about just look at AutoHotKey's AutoGUI form creator.

Thanks

hi @krakerman,

Select an existent shortcut, right click to the context menu, select "Propierties", select the shortcut tab, change the shortcut key you like and save the dialog.

You could activate the program using the selected hot keys.

@krakerman,

As a late response, you can use the freeware plugin, KB Hooker at https://rcmediaservices.net/neobook

This will allow you to set global hotkeys that are accessible anywhere, not just from your app.

acHotKey plugin is exactly what I wanted and need that was just released by asleycruz :)

Very much the same as how it works in AHK (AutoGUI) perfect for what I need and been asking for.
