| I could swear in the past it worked, but trying to set an Accelerator with a Numpad option (i.e. \\\Accelerator("Shift+Numpad4", "eat")) does not seem to work in 5.07-pre.
It IS listed as one of the keywords in the Accelerator help file, but setting it does absolutely nothing unless I'm missing something. | | Top |

| Shift+Numpad4 doesn't seem to be a combination that generates a key.
See: Input menu -> Key name for testing key combinations.
With NumLk off I can get Shift+Left to send something. |

| Well, I'll be... I think I was misremembering, then, and was using Alt rather than Shift.
Is this a OS thing, where Shift+Numpad doesn't send the combination, or a MUSHClient thing? | | Top |

| It's on OS thing. That dialog box that lets you test keystrokes just does an OS call to see what keystroke (if any) is returned when you press a certain key.
Under the World Configuration -> Input -> Keypad tab you can set up things to be sent on the unshifted keypad entries, and also Ctrl+something keypad entries, without having to use Accelerator at all. |

Oh yeah, I am well aware of this option; just wanted to add some more options on the numpad. Given the options, it seems there are 59 total keypad options on the Numpad (would be 60, but Ctrl+Alt+0 sends Ctrl+Alt+Del, at least for me). Shame Shift doesn't work, as that would expand it to 119 total actions, but eh, I can live with 59. Thanks, as always, for the responses! | | Top |
