Use Ranking and Color Class hot keys at the same time.
« on: November 15, 2010, 12:31:20 PM »
Would it be possible to have Photo Mechanic filter the ascii codes sent from a keyboard such that the Num Pad codes for 0 - 9 could be seen as different from the !/1 - */8 codes so that Ratings and Color Classes could be entered simultaneously ?

My other suggestion would be to use the Function keys as an alternate entry ...

Thanks

Andrew,

Not the ASCII values, no.  After all, a 1 is a 1 and a 2 is a 2.  But the keyboard scan codes could be used instead, but that would cause issues for people using non-North American keyboards.
