Multiple custom keyboard shortcuts for a single command
Posted: Tue Oct 18, 2022 12:49 am
In XnView classic, you can use both the backspace and the page up keys to go to the previous file.
...but in XnView MP, you can only set one or the other - not both, because XnView MP only allows for a single custom keyboard shortcut to be active at a given time.
Similarly, as I stated in my "Equals key does not zoom in" thread, in XnView classic, you can use both the equals key and NUMpad plus to zoom in.
...but in XnView MP, because you can only set one keyboard shortcut at a time, you are only able to have one or the other.
The obvious solution in my view is to simply allow the ability to set multiple keyboard shortcuts to a single command.
Thing is, for me, I use space and backspace during more of a "presentation" situation due to those keys being large and easy to access with minimal chance for mistake. However, in a situation where I'm more of going through lots of different files one after another and sometimes going to the previous or, heck, going back and forth between two, I'll end up using something like Page Up and Page Down instead due to their close proximity on the keyboard which allows for quicker movement more easily.
