Could it possible to change shurtcuts ?

datalight

Hi All

 

I recently used almost 10 years Altium Designer. My new company has CircuitStudio and shortcuts are really different from Altium. I didn't found but I want to ask could it possible to change shortcuts in CircuitStudio ?

    A workaround for you might be to use the Shift+F1 key combo to bring up the context specific shortcuts/commands and choose from there.

     

    Does a German mapped keyboard not have the numeric keypad?  The * used for shortcut to switch layers is the multiply (*) on the numeric keypad and not the asterisk on the shift-8 part of the keyboard.  If you have a laptop without a numeric keypad then I know you can get usb attached numeric key pads or use a usb keyboard.

     

    Sadly, there I have found no easy way to remap the shortcuts but there are probably utility programs that can do it or could implement multiple key macros.  Supposedly there is a way to edit the Windows registry keys or follow the AdvSch.rcs and AdvPcb.rcs instructions.  On my system these rcs files are here: C:\Program Files (x86)\Altium\CS\System.  If you open AdvPcb.rcs with a text editor you can search for the word Multiply.  Then you will find on about line 700 the shortcuts for Next Signal Layer and Previous Signal Layer.  You might be able to experiment with changing the shortcuts.  I had no luck doing this. Some of this is documented here: https://www.altium.com/documentation/altium-dxp-developer/server-configuration-files

     

    I'd make a backup of the file before changing it though.
