In MC30.0.18 there was a new command added to "clear search box". It's MCC 22042. I mapped it to command-g (by using "Ctrl-G" in the Resource.xml file). That worked, but 22042 was doing some weird stuff. Matt changed it so it works really well now. I just downloaded MC30.0.20 and remapped that key again.
No go. I thought the MCC was broken, but then I tried another key and it worked. I currently have it mapped to Command-h (Ctrl;H).
Any idea why Command-G is no longer available?
Thanks,
Brian.

It's possible I broke that. I was trying to see if a missing alt command could be implemented. Check it again the next build.
-
Thanks very much. I'll try again with the next build.

I'm guessing the fix didn't make it into MC30.0.21 that was released today. I just tried "Ctrl;G" again and it's the same as before.
No big deal. I've got a workaround until whenever it gets changed or even indefinitely.
Thanks,
Brian.

On Windows, Ctrl+G collapses the tree. Is that the same on a Mac? Could your choice be clashing with that?
-
I would have thought so for SURE because I've seen that behavior before I tried mapping it. But in MC30.0.18, I was able to map Ctrl;G successfully. At MC30.0.20 and 21 it no longer works.

Can you share what you did in the resource file to map it?
Thanks.

This is the relevant part of the file:
<!-- Go to search box -->
<Entry Key="Ctrl;F" Command="22022" />
<!-- Clear Search Box -->
<Entry Key="Ctrl;H" Command="22042" />
As you can see, it's mapped to control-h, which is command-h on Mac. Previously I had a "G" where the "H" is.
If you need any other details, let me know. Thanks for taking the time to look.

Did you remove the entry for Ctrl;G a few lines down below that?
When I do everything works fine.
That Resource.xml gets overwritten on every MC build installed so you need to keep one around and overwrite it each time OR just put a copy in
~/Library/Application Support/Media Center 30/Data/Custom Resources
-
I'm only using the Data/Custom Resources/Resource.xml file. I don't edit the one that's inside Application package (inside the app).
I just tried it again and got it working using MC30.0.21.
I think know why. I had done a workaround when it stopped working. The workaround was to have Alfred convert the Command-g hot key into Command-h. I had disconnected the two in Alfred for testing, but I didn't *erase* the hotkey capture in Alfred so I think Alfred was "eating the key".
Sorry about any extra effort I put you through. It does seem to work now in 30.0.21. Yay!
Brian.
