Our programmers are asking for a list of applicable keyboard shortcut that the users want and need to make the "PCB Library Expert" and "Footprint Designer" a better more efficient tool.
 
Please post all of your Keyboard Shortcut requests here.
 
Thanks!

Or make it so it is configurable.

Have a list of commands that are available and allow the shortcut keys for them to be pressed/defined and saved. :)

Seconded.  In particular a few like CTRL+S would be very useful to me as I use Logitech performance MX 11-button mice with the setpoint software that I set up keyboard short-cuts for.  One of my favourites is CTRL+S for the first thumb button for a quick save in Pulsonix.]]> Thu, 12 Jul 2012 15:00:26 +0000 https://www.PCBLibraries.com/forum/shortcut-keys_topic448_post1318.html#1318 <![CDATA[Shortcut Keys : It would be great to have...]]> https://www.PCBLibraries.com/forum/shortcut-keys_topic448_post1304.html#1304 Author: ctreadway

It would be great to have some of the well known shortcut keys integrated into the system.
For example: CTRL+F to find something in the library, CTRL+H for Replace, CTRL+C / CTRL+V to copy/paste objects on the footprint or rows/columns in the library as in Excel, CTRL+D for fill down (especially for Manufacturer column if you are making several parts for the same Manufacturer), CTRL+S for Save, Delete key when highlighting library content or objects on the footprint.
 
I realize this all can be done by converting the fpx file to Excel, but that is tedious and takes more time.
