Another External Editor Hot Key ?

[annedi]

I could really use another external editor hot key in addition to 'E'.
I regularly use multiple editors, but I have two preferred editors which are used constantly.
So perhaps 'F' could be used for sending a photo to my 2nd preferred editor?
Or maybe CMD-E ??

This sure would be nice to have. "-)

I'll add another vote. I could really make use of this.

Hi,
Cmd+E is already used to send images to your preferred editor (you can specify one editor for each file type if you wish).
Besides this, you could right-click a picture and choose which editor you would like to use with "Edit photo with..."
HTH,

Can't beat a hot key for speed though, Luiz. When I work in PM I have my right hand on the cursor keys and the left poised to simultaneously rate the image and hovering over the E to open the image for editing. Having another vacant key on the left side of the keyboard assigned to my second editor would save having to move my hand over to the mouse. Every second spent and avoidable movement made adds up by the end of a long day!

Yes, it is for speedy processing that it would be nice to be able to have another Editor Hot Key.

I've recently had to abandon my old workflow (because Capture NX2 is going away soon) in favor of a new one which unfortunately requires use of two different converters/editors - such that I cannot send a completed foto from one onward to the other. So after returning a saved TIFF from the first editor to Photo Mechanic, it sure would be cool to immediately Hot Key it to the other editor.

From my former software days, I know that it is not terribly difficult to define such things. But of course the developers have to weigh priorities and demands for more important features.
