Title: How to edit/add keyboard shortcuts for "Button Scripts" ?
Post by: fabhund on September 29, 2013, 03:10:00 PM

Dear Forum.
I'm running the Big-Tex Blue Screen set.
Where some customized appears: "Initial Zero Setup" and "Tool change zero"
I would like to add some keyboard shortcuts for those as minimum, but also for other function.

Is that possible ? and how do i get started ?

Further I'm looking at the PoKeys56U, the idea is to have a custom controlbox wired to PoKeys, and run some of the scripts.
Will I need above shortcuts be needed for that, or is there a "DoButton" command for the scripts ?

Best Regards, Bo Andersen.

You can set hotkeys for onscreen buttons in a screen designer, either Screen4 or Machscreen.

You may need to use a macropump to call scripts from external buttons.

Great, thanks.
I will look into Screen Designer Software.
