On Tweake-ME, there is an option to remove some keys from hot-key functionality. I would like to know if this can be used (and if so, in what format), or if there is another way, to block certain hotkeys such as Ctrl-C, Ctrl-X, Ctrl-V, etc.

You could create a macro that does nothing, then assign that to the hotkey(s).

 

An example would be a macro that only has one line:

 

Delay 6ms

 

or even just a Remark (comment).

 

In addition, you should also use the Scope field to limit the hotkey to only certain programs or windows.

Actually, my intention is to allow the Ctrl-C to send highlighted text to the Clipboard... but thinking about that now... I could just set up a macro to do just that. Hmmm....

Why would you need a macro to do that? That's default window shortcut key for copying something to the clipboard.

 

Maybe I missed something.

That is exactly why I want to block it... to preven ME from using it... and keep it as a windows short-cut key for copying.

Joe,

 

Sure... take the easy way out.

 

:o

 

I know... but sometimes I forget... I only do the hotkey's when I am testing them... otherwise, all (but a few utility macros I use) are set up with no hotkey... and when I am ready to use them, I set the hotkey (usually to Ctrl-a).

For testing situations I use Ctrl+1, 2, ,3 ... top row of the keyboard. Technically I start with Ctrl+' (Control Tilde) because I can activate it with just my left hand ... being the lazy sort that I am.
