Hotkeys, Seeking & GUI preferences

[eumagga0x2a]

The currentTime QLineEdit is read-only because the backend is not fully implemented. No need to touch context menu, it will have all necessary entries by default once the backend is there and the field can be made read-write.

The only issue is that I cannot associate a hotkey to it.

I also have user scripts I use very often and I made custom keyboard shortcuts for them in a very stupid way with AutoKey scripts (Linux alternative for AutoHotKey on windows).
Example of a script:

Code Select Expand

keyboard.send_keys("<alt>+c")           # Open menu File
keyboard.send_key("<down>",repeat=3)    # Down X-times
keyboard.send_keys("<enter>")           # Open submenu - Run
With AutoKey settings:

• Hotkey: ctrl+shift+f
• Window Filter: (avidemux\.avidemux|avidemux3_qt5\.avidemux3_qt5)

And because I am bad at remembering my shortcuts I just put shortcuts in names of *.py files (separated by spaces) in the Avidemux custom directory so I can see them in the menu like on the screenshot.

It is a very stupid way but it works...
It there was a way how to associate a shortcut with particular custom file (identified simply by filename of filepath inside the custom directory), that would be great.

b&Segments.py puts an accelerator key on S.

On Windows you can use Alt followed by C to open Custom Menu, then S to open the bSegments.py.
