AkelPad

Hi,

Alkpead (v4.6.4) currently uses CTRL+SHIFT+Z for Redo's shortcut key. I want to change it to CTRL+Y, how to do that?

1) Now this shortcut [CTRL+Y] is used for "delete current line" function (IDM_EDIT_DELLINE Command(4197))
Very usefull function for me. Not for you?
2) Menu "Plugins"--"HotKeys..."--[All keys...]:
look for Command(4152) (or IDM_EDIT_REDO) (or CTRL+SHIFT+Z).
Click it by mouse.
After that push YOUR keys [CTRL+Y]
And now push button [Add]
You can see your keys in list.
Now you will able to use [CTRL+Y] AND [CTRL+SHIFT+Z] for REDO

Well, I'm more used to the windows shortcut key of redo and I happened to be never using "Delete Current Line" feature.

But anyway, I can't found IDM_EDIT_REDO command on the plugin dialog. This is how the dialog looks like when I opened from menu "Options" -> "Plug-ins":

bromo, install Hotkeys plugin

Thanks, it's solved.

You may also edit Akelpad.exe resources: in the ACCELERATORS section, 4197: "Ctrl+Y" and 4152: "Shift+Ctrl+Z". But this will require you to repeat actions after every app update

Thanks opk44! Was wondering about this myself!

thank you bromo its really use full and practical answer

Would it be possible for Ctrl+Y to be redo by default? I believe that almost every other Windows application has this behavior, and it is a shock to new users to have their redo history wiped when they press Ctrl+Y.

qoshinator, Ctrl+Y's function always was "Delete current line"(and Ctrl+K,Y's - to remove block too). REDO shortcut is Ctrl+Shift+Z and there is will no changes in key binding defaults in nearest and far futures. And about "almost every other Windows application" I can begin holy war included many swears and other aggressive expressions directed to its adepts.

I've never seen Redo on Ctrl-Y too. But you may change the shortcuts yourself by editing ACCELERATORS section in resources.

It is in MS Office package and other similar applications(MS Visual Studio for instance)

Hi,

How to edit ACCELERATORS? I can't found any options about this. I would like to change the Exit key (ESC) since Hotkey plugin doesn't work for this.

Press "..." under hotkey field and input 27 (this is code of the Escape key).


Or maybe Exit plugin will fit your needs.
