    How to customize shortcuts in Encore DVD 2.0?

    Averdahl Community Member
      Hi!

      I need to customize some shortcuts because i am using a keyboard with a Swedish layout. If i press Ctrl+; to show guides on a menu the menu zooms out...

      In "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Encore DVD 2.0\Required" there is a file named keymap.xml that i have customized some shortcuts in, but not all of the aviable shortcuts, Ctrl+; included, can be found in that file.

      So, do you know where i can find the file so i can change Ctrl+; to something else? Is it possible at all?

            There's no supported mechanism for modifying shortcuts in 2.0, sorry. It is on our list of feature requests though...

            It sounds like "Ctrl + ;" is mapped to "Ctrl + ," on your keyboard. The Swedish keyboard layout shown in the link below shows that the comma and semi-colon characters share the same key:

            Try holding the Shift key down when you use "Ctrl + ;" to see if that gets you the Show Guides gesture.

              Larry, thanks for answering!

              You are right, i can only get Ctrl+, on a Swedish keyboard. The stange thing is that Ctrl+, showed guides in Encore DVD 1.x. For some reason it does not work in Encore DVD 2.0.

              I tried Shift and Ctrl different keys in different combinations to no avail. I can not use any shortcut that involves semicolon.

              I did send in a bug report for this and a feature request for customization of keyboard shortcuts today.
