Is it possible to add the Win key when assigning shortcuts?

No, unfortunately not.

I use AHK (www.autohotkey.com) because it does allow the Win key.

I use AHK as well (with Win key) for shortcuts to folders in XY...

(Just wanted to have it all in XY...) :wink:

If you think you don't have enough KS, I know a way to give you up to 8 times more KS... just in case...

Yeah, but I hope you also know a way to memorize all of them :lol:

Haaa!! about memorizing, how about "Report CKS"? I would like to have a printed format of my shortcuts. Customized cheat sheets :wink: . Sometimes its hard to find some CKS, so a find option for CKS would be good too. I thought Don had some ideas about "find-as-you-type" feature for future.
i am curious to know about 8 times KS thing.

You mean its hard to find some FREE CKS, right? I though about that... A simple popup selection list of a free KS should do.

8 times KS thing: very simple, I can distinguish right from left CTRL, SHIFT, and ALT (AltGr) key. Gives 2x2x2 more combinations. But of course bergfex is right (and I was half-joking): or would you remember:
CtrlR+ShiftL+ShiftR+AltR+F9 ? And if yes, could you press it?? :)

Well, not only free but any cks. For eg. if i want to see all tree related cks, I should be able to find them instead of browsing them in every category. I think this would make CKS (and UDC) even more user-friendly.

For this I would have to tag all functions for their various relatednesses... that's almost impossible. Or do you have another idea?

Well, as long as I can find all menu titles its should be fine. I would prefer either a filter type search or type-as-you-find.
BTW, is it possible to export CKS to file or print it?

Already built in: see the menu "Options"! :)

Your other wish. Later... (frankly, I still do not understand what you are missing...)

Like serendipity, i found this option only because somebody pointed me to it a few days ago. I didn't suspect a menu in a configuration window, therefore i just overlooked it.

Maybe it would be better to place another button next to "Hints..." which pops up the "Options"-menu? I guess it would get more attention than the main menu on the top :)

One more thing about the cheat sheets: Could it be implemented that the "rows" of the exported file are aligned? E.g.:

Code: Select all

Backspace       Up
Enter           Open Selected Item(s)
Esc             Stop
Del             Delete
Numpad Multiply Fully Expand
Numpad Divide   Fully Collapse
F1              Contents and Index
F2              Rename
F3              Find Now
F4              Refresh Tree
F5              Refresh File List
F6              Cycle Focus
F7              Go to Previous Location
F8              Show Catalog
F9              Configuration...
F11             Preview Image Full Screen
F12             Show Info Panel
Shift+Backspace Down
Shift+Del       Delete (No Recycle Bin)
Or maybe an option for a .csv output?

I'll add a TOTD about it... :)

BTW, did you know that the commands list has a context menu?? :wink:

aligned: soe keys are very long (Ctrl+Shift+Alt+Numpad Subtract...) , it would not look good.

It's tab separated -- you can convert it to CSV.

Yeah, this bothered me too. (Also if descriptions are included). Then i remembered what you said in a topic a few days ago: "I did not like that question so I stopped thinking about it. :)"

Indeed! i didn't notice because my text editor converts tabs to spaces...
