Enabling/Disabling Global Hot Keys

Open full view...

Categories: Preferences/Settings

To Enable the Global Hot Keys in Windows, click File from the drop-down menu and select Preferences (on a Mac, click KueIt from the drop-down menu and select Preferences). In Preferences, check the box next to Enable Global Hot Keys. When Global Hot Keys is enabled, you can still use shortcut keys to quickly turn this function on or off. Clicking the ''`'' (back quote) key will turn Global Hot Keys on; clicking the ''\'' (backslash) key will turn Global Hot Keys off.

Note: if Global Hot Keys is not enabled in the Preferences window, Global Hot Keys and the Global Hot Key On/Off shortcut keys will not work at all. This is to protect you from accidentally enabling Global Hot Keys.
