« on: June 22, 2016, 05:20:02 pm »

You need to add Global="1" to your hotkeys. Take a look at the default Resources.xml.

Interesting.  I thought Global must mean something other than what it means because it doesn't work on Mac.  I guess it's just another difference between MC on Windows and Mac.  Nice to know it works with Windows I guess.
