Re: Macro Keyboard Key Does Not Get Replaced
Ahh it WAS a sticky situation!

I did replace the keyboard keys to new ones in both configs to http://i.imgur.com/OX0kcVJ.png, didn't help.

I then reset all, and it did remove all my keyboard shortcuts I put in place, but Shift-S was still alive and working, the refresh does not help either.

But the moment of rejoice has come after I exited and restarted the editor, now the old keyboard key assignment has finally gone.

Re: Macro Keyboard Key Does Not Get Replaced
Hello,

Can you try both "Properties for Current Configuration" and "Properties for All Configurations" to remove the SHIFT + S shortcut from your macro? You can also press "Reset" on "Properties for All Configurations" to completely reset shortcuts although you might not want to reset all.

Thanks!

Re: Macro Keyboard Key Does Not Get Replaced
Thank you Yutaka for the attempt to recover, unfortunately the refresh does not help.
On the bright side, I now know why this option is there .

Now, since me, silly, assigned Shift-S to the swap lines, and I cannot un-do this assignment I am stuck being unable to type capital Ss

I am at despair, please tell me there is one more trick before the complete removal .

Re: Macro Keyboard Key Does Not Get Replaced
Silly on my side to assign Shift-S, true, but it is not to deceive me. It is just a test that ended badly .

Yet, the key combination must not be important John.

So no mistake on my side, the keyboard command assigned must adhere to the configuration setting.

Therefore this is a bug.

Re: Macro Keyboard Key Does Not Get Replaced
Hello,

I couldn't reproduce the issue, but I believe there is a bug. I just can't reproduce the same procedure or conditions that you have.

However, you can try this if something is not synchronized on the Macros toolbar: Please right-click on the Macros toolbar, and select "Refresh".

Thanks!

Re: Macro Keyboard Key Does Not Get Replaced
I'm not sure you can use Shift+S as a keystroke.
I mean... Shift+S is Uppercase-S.

Then again, it may be a problem in that you confused it.

Macro Keyboard Key Does Not Get Replaced
I think this is a core defect:

Create a new macro (in my case made it swap-lines).

Assign a keyboard shortcut. Place it onto the Macros toolbar.

Use the new shortcut. Exit EmEditor.

Come back to change the shortcut; Restart EmEditor. The old shortcut sticks to the tooltip and the only one that works. Not the new shortcut. Further replacements of the key combinations have no effect.
