Wojtek Stecyszyn 8 Posted May 26, 2022 (edited) Hello everyone. I see on the web Cakewalk documentation that on keyboard shortcut list there is shortcut for "Show/hide ProChannel" >> CTRL+I - works fine. But In Cakewalk keyboard shortcuts I cant see this position. Would be nice to change CTRL +I for something easier (manageable with one hand) as i use this option very often. Beside this one I have found many other shortcuts that exist but are not customisable. Can I unlock them somehow? -------------------- Mu music: https://wojciechstecyszyn.bandcamp.com/ Edited May 26, 2022 by Wojtek Stecyszyn 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 scook 4,694 Posted May 26, 2022 I don't believe so. Not all functions are exposed for (re)mapping. That said, AutoHotkey or something similar is a skill worth picking up. For example, here is the AutoHotkey script that maps the (currently unbound) F2 function key to CTRL+i in CbB (and only CbB) Quote #If WinActive("ahk_exe i)Cakewalk.exe") F2::^i #If When CbB has focus, press the F2 key and CbB receives CTRL+i. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I opened up Customisation | Keyboard Shortcuts (Advanced) and I was able to find “Show/hide ProChannel” under the Area “Console View” rather than “Global bindings” From there, you can assign another key binding to “Show/hide ProChannel” 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CTRL+i toggles PC display in the inspector. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Although works only in console view it does make things easier than navigating with mouse cursor to the tiny arrow. Thanks - already assigned my custom shortcut to it.

I guess I will try them AutoHotkeys Thanks once again Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Same goes for CAL and Studioware Panels - but that's a topic for separate thread. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ok, Im in AutoHotkey club now But Im having problem with my short cut for Inspector pane I want to make Ctrl+Tab AutoHotkey do what Ctrl+I in CbB does and Im trying to use your template (just replacing your F2 with my Ctrl+Tab) but it does not work (I got an error) My sript is: #If WinActive("ahk_exe i)Cakewalk.exe") ^{Tab}::^i #If Error message says: Line Text^{Tab}:: ^i What do I do wrong? Can you please help @scook Edited June 26, 2022 by Wojtek Stecyszyn Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Also make sure SetTitleMatchMode RegEx is somewhere above #If WinActive("ahk_exe i)Cakewalk.exe") because this line uses a regular expression. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
