Hi, I seem to remember there might be some undocumented shortcut keys. What I am looking for is a shortcut key for the "Declick Strong" function. I have discovered that I can get much better declick results on many songs by zooming the screen to show only about 15 seconds of the song, declick, then click the right scrollbar to move ahead to the next 15 seconds and so on. But I get tired having to click right then move the mouse up to click on the Declick Strong button. If there was a single key to hit for Strong Declick then I could get more done faster. Is there such a shortcut key? I'm using 0.19.3 still as it's stable and seems to do what I want. Thanks, John |

I'll repost this informative email from Stewart Evens, describing how to bind your own special keys to any menu function: -- I mentioned a while ago that the old Gnome style of changing menu accelerators wasn't working in 0.20. After some hunting, I've figured out how to fix it. First - version 2.0 of GTK has this option turned off by default. Its doc says to add the line "gtk_can_change_accels = 1" to your ~/.gtkrc-2.0 file. Simple, right? But wait! Gnome 2 doesn't pay attention to that file, apparently because of its ludicrous "gconf" scheme. So I had to run gconf-editor (which, on my RedHat system, can be found in the oh-so-intuitive menu location System Tools -> More System Tools -> Configuration Editor). Running it warns me that this is not the preferred way of setting my desktop, but since there's no indication of what *is* the preferred way, I went ahead anyway. Anyway, now I only had to navigate down to "desktop -> gnome -> interface" and scroll down until I found the "can_change_accels" item. IMHO, the Gnome2 developers deserve congratulations for approaching Microsoft's level of user hostility and disregard for backwards compatibility. But I digress...anyway, the above worked for me. Unfortunately F1 does not seem to be allowed as an accelerator (other fkeys are okay) so I will have to get used to a new key binding. -- Stewart John Cirillo wrote: > Hi, > I seem to remember there might be some undocumented shortcut keys. > What I am looking for is a shortcut key for the "Declick Strong" > function.

Unfortunately I don't think KDE has a similar learning scheme. Since I use KDE, I won't have this feature at my disposal. Actually I had thought it might be a built-in GWC hidden key but I guess not. Thanks for the replies!

Hmmm. If you want to have fun hacking, wander into gwc.c, and find this function (about line 1291) gboolean key_press_cb(GtkWidget * widget, GdkEventKey * event, gpointer data) you'll see there are some predefined keypresses there, and you might find it easier just to hack the code for now :-) jw > Unfortunately I don't think KDE has a similar learning scheme. > Since I use KDE, I won't have this feature at my disposal.

Jeff, Thanks. That works out best for me. And there I also found the list of the "undocumented" shortcut keys (well, most of them are in the gwc_help.html file, except j and k.) I decided to hotkey the Declick_Strong with "g" as in "go" since S and D are already taken. I also hotkeyed Declick_Weak with w since that was available. The altered code (gwc.c in gwc-0.19-7): (Starts at line 1598) GNOMEUIINFO_ITEM_ACCEL(" Declick Strong", "Remove pops/clicks from current view or selection", declick, declick_xpm, GDK_g), GNOMEUIINFO_ITEM_ACCEL(" Declick Weak", "Remove weaker pops/clicks from current view or selection", declick_weak, declick_w_xpm, GDK_w), John Jeff Welty wrote: > Hmmm.
