Title: Alt + V (Fixed)
Post by: steve on October 12, 2012, 07:18:20 pm

Hello,

I created the hotkey "Alt+V" for "Window Zoom View" as that was not being used. I find that, unpredictably, that "Alt+V" will decide to open the [NVIL]drop down munu "View". I then find only exit>restart will allow the hotkey setting to be used.

I know in some programs that "Alt+[menu name first letter]" does do that function, but do not see why this is happening in NVIL

So for now, have changed the hotkey.

Thanks,

When keyboard is hooked, 'Alt+V' should not open any menu.
But keyboard is not hooked all the time. If you have your cursor inside the viewport, the keyboard is quarantee hooked.
If you move your cursor over an editor control(eg. an numerical or text box) and click to give it the focus, the keyboard hooking will be released to allow normal key action for that control. But it will also allow 'Alt+V' to open 'View' menu. This is Windows default behaviour and I don't know any other way to disable it apart from keyboard hooking.
