Tool change shortcut

Post by dunbarx » Wed Oct 18, 2017 5:30 pm

After all these years, I just thought of using the right button on my mouse to switch between browse and pointer tools.

Code: Select all

on rawKeyUp tKey
if tKey = 65473 then if the tool = "browse tool" then choose "pointer tool" else choose  "browse tool"
end rawKeyUp
Put it into a plug-in. What a dope.

Why a dope? Sounds like an answer to a question I'd never even have thought of, but is interesting now that I've heard it :wink:
