Hi,

A Very Happy New Year to all.

In clipper programs, we could make a set key (say Alt+R) to some function in the main program and we could call this function from anywhere in the program by pressing the appropriate keys.

In HMG as I understand, we have to set the keys for each window seperately with the On Key command. Is it possible in HMG to give a Global On Key setting for all the windows instead of seperate definitions for each window ? Pls advice.

Warm regards,

Jayadev

Hi Jayadev,

It is possible in the HMG Extended Edition with command

SET GLOBAL HOTKEYS ON

but there is a foreign effect from applying of this command that your hotkeys is available in another's applications also

Happy New Year

Dear Mr. Filatov,

Many thanks for your immediate reply.

but there is a foreign effect from applying of this command that your hotkeys is available in another's applications also

You mean other MiniGui Extended applications or all other window applications which are running.

Warm regards,

Jayadev,

I means all other running window applications
It is a global action via your application's global hotkey (may be useful for tray-based utility).
