EDIUS Keyboard shortcuts

[bhiga]

Want to know what your keyboard shortcut assignments are without having to scroll through the list? Yeah, I know you do!

Well, there's good news for you. I have a tool that will convert EDIUS v3/v4 keyboard shortcut .DAT files (Application Settings | Customize | Keyboard, click Export) to human-readable tab-delimited text so you can arrange it as you see fit (easiest to paste into Excel then you can sort/group/etc).

Get it here.

An important note on keyboard shortcuts:
When upgrading between minor versions of EDIUS (ie 4.0 to 4.1, etc), any new keyboard shortcuts that are added in the new version will be unassigned, even if there's a default keystroke associated with that function. This is to avoid inadvertently reassigning a function that you may have already assigned on your own. So, after you upgrade be sure to
check the list for new functions.

The Shortcut translator tool also needs to be updated with each new version, to become aware of new functions. Fun, eh?

Anyway, I hope it helps you out and have happy and safe holidays!

Thanks for that Brandon. I'll have to have a look at it tonight. Something I need to get into the habit of. Using the keyboard shortcuts.

FYI, the shortcut translator has been updated to support v4.5 of EDIUS (which uses an entirely new format).
Now supports:

• HTML table output
• Sort by command or keystroke
• If you're using v4.5, you can remove/rename the Commands.txt file to use command descriptions embedded within the .EAP file
• Multiple keystrokes assigned to the same command (this is more of a bugfix, actually)
• Omission of unassigned commands from the output
