Keyboard Options

There are many commands and actions that have keyboard shortcuts assigned to them by default. Keyboard options allow you to completely customized most BugSeeker commands and actions to your preference so that you will be able to use the debugger more efficiently.

Category

All BugSeeker commands and actions are logically group by category. These categories closely resemble BugSeeker's menu layout so finding the command you wish to configure keyboard shortcuts for should be quite easy. If you are having trouble find the command you wish to configure or have a need to find out if a certain command or action can be configured, browse through the All Commands category which displays all configurable commands and actions.

Commands

For each selected category, the commands list will display all keyboard configurable commands in the list. A command in the list must be selected before you may assign a keystroke shortcut to the command (the Assign button will appear disabled until a command is selected from the list).

Current keys

When a command from the list is selected, the current keys list will display all currently assigned keystrokes to this command if any. To remove a keystroke assignment, highlight the keystroke in the list and click the Remove button or press the delete key.

Press new shortcut key

Once a command in the Commands list is selected you may enter new keystroke shortcuts by giving this text field focus and then pressing desired keystroke you wish to assign to the selected command. Each keystroke combination you enter will replace the current keystroke displayed in this text field. To clear the keystroke you have just entered, press the backspace key. When you are satisfied that the keystroke you have just entered is the one you wish to assign to the selected command, press the Assign button or press the Enter/Return key. Almost any key or keystroke combination may be used to map to BugSeeker's commands. The only keys that cannot be mapped are the Enter/Return and Backspace keys.

If the keystroke you entered is already assigned to a command, a message will be displayed below this text field identify the name of the command that this keystroke is already bound to. If you ignore this warning and proceed to assign the keystroke to the currently selected command, the previous mapping for this keystroke will be removed. Therefore, a keystroke combination may only be mapped to one and only one command at any given time.

Reset All

If this button is pressed, BugSeeker will ask you if you wish to reset all keyboard mappings to their default factory settings. If you press No or Cancel the keyboard mappings will not be reset.
