mapkey triggering another mapkey?

[nracingdev]

I thought this was a simple task but I haven't been able to figure it out. I have multiple mapkeys that all perform different tasks. Ii want to create a "master" mapkey that will trigger the other multiple mapkeys in turn.

I can't quite figure out how to tell proE to trigger a mapkey during recording.

any help is greatly appreciated!
thanks

Edit the mapkey definition using notepad (or similar)


e.g use % to call another mapkey


mapkey MASTER %key1;%key2

so in notpad I edxit the confi.pro file and find my blank master mapkey. after blank master I tell it which to run in turn. when I specify which to run am I saying %"name of mapkey" or which keystroke (ie.$F1)?

thanks again!

Use %keystroke

When you start recording the mapkey click somewhere in
the main window to move your cursor from the description
or name of the mapkey back to the user interface. Then
when you hit the hotkey it doesnt type it in the fields
for the mapkey but actually runs the mapkey.

This is it! I didnt try manually adding it to the mapkey via notepad as clicking the UI and pressing the hotkey stroke is so easy! no cryptography needed lol.
THANKS AGAIN GUYS!
