    Different keyboard shortcuts for each mode

    I have almost every key and shift+key on my keyboard mapped, and I need more.

    I'd like to be able to map each mode differently.  That way I can have a layout for editing mode, another for my effects, and another for CC.  I just don't have enough options to map everything I need.

     

    For example, V is insert edit.  However, I'd like V to be the Move option in the effects palette so I can hit V, grab my video and move it off to the corner.  Then I could hit R (normally reserved for Out Point) and rotate the video.  When I get out of Effects mode my keyboard changes to the next mode I'm in (editing, for example).

    This would make the keyboard that much more powerful and save my wrist from all the mousing I do when I go into Effects mode or color correction.  

     

    Thanks.

    Michael,

    You can actually do this now with Toolsets.

    Go to Toolset > and select 'Color Correction'.  Arrange the windows as you like.

    Go into your settings and duplicate the Keyboard setting.  Name is 'CC'.  Activate it (double-click just to the left until a tick appears).  Now map all your keys as you want for a CC layout.

    Do this with any additional settings, i.e. Timeline.

    Go to Toolset > and select 'Link Current To...', then 'Linked To Named settings'.  Type in 'CC'.

    Then importantly, Toolset > 'Save Current'.

    Now whenever you go into the Color Correction Toolset (which you can map to a button) it will also load all settings called 'CC'.
