Morning all, a few weeks ago i created a few new tools (you know the sort copy multiple and a rad i use regularly) does anyone know if i can assign these to a key?

 

cheers all. im off to do some scaling!!

a key as in toolbar button or single key keyboard entry?

 

If its the former STOP - just realised you're using 2000.

 

Yes you can create your own toolbar buttons but I can't remember how. I think you right click an existing toolbar and customize. Check the FAQ or the help file, I am sure its covered there.

post what you have and somebody will help you. The answer is different if you have used LISP, VBA or macro.

sounds like you need to edit the macro property of the new button you created.

yea ive got the macro's i want i just want to know how to assign it to a keyboard shortcut,

 

Thanks for your reply dave but im not sure what is " LISP or VBA" is

No.

 

You need to assign the macro to that button that will call your macro. I.E you are telling the button what to type in at the command line, kind of.

LISP and VBA are programming languages. I don't know if you can invoke a macro from the command line and VBA needs 2 calls but a LISP can be loaded into memory at start up and then called from the command line at any time.

 

I think you can wrap your macro into a LISP routine but without seeing your macro I can't comment further.
