F2 not listed

Open evilC opened this issue 3 years ago • 1 comments

Hi, I have something of a problem. When I first started using fusion, I assigned F2 to Create Point - this was all working OK. Just now, I decided to change this to something else (I intended to make Create Point be .) and re-assign F2 to Tangent Constraint So I reassigned Create Point to ., but then when I went to assign Tangent Constraint to F2, it is telling me that F2 is reserved. When I use this script to list shortcuts, F2 is not listed anywhere, so I do not know what it is even meant to do.

So I guess at one point F2 could be re-assigned, and now it cannot? Do you know any way around this?

As a side note, I only have 3 scripts / add-ins installed, and all of them turn out to be yours (This one, AnyShortcut, and Parametric Text) - so it seems like we think alike ;) I also see that you have some AHK stuff for Fusion in your repos - I am a prolific AHK coder, so if there's anything you need AHK-wise, drop me a line, I would be willing to return the favour. For example, you may want to check this repo of mine out: https://github.com/evilC/AutoHotInterception This would allow you to assign Fusion hotkeys to a specific keyboard on your system - eg you could have a separate USB number pad connected to your PC, and have a key on the number pad send a specific key sequence, but the number pad on your main keyboard would continue to function as normal

Hi,

The add-in just reads from an XML file where Fusion saves its user assigned shortcuts (I think you can search the source for "xml"). I don't know more than that 😅.

I have seen that pressing F2 sometimes brings up a little text edit box, but I don't know what it does.

Maybe the Fusion support forums could give you an answer. It works sometimes: https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/fusion-360/ct-p/1234

Thanks for the offer :)
