cyberchief Posted March 28, 2006 Report Share Posted March 28, 2006 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lemming Posted March 28, 2006 Report Share Posted March 28, 2006 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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....

jowensii Posted March 29, 2006 Report Share Posted March 29, 2006 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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 Posted March 29, 2006 Report Share Posted March 29, 2006 Cyberchief - er, why not just not make any macros activated by those HotKeys? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyberchief Posted March 29, 2006 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2006 Joe, Sure... take the easy way out. 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).

joe Posted March 29, 2006 Report Share Posted March 29, 2006 Cyberchief - 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
