Title: Shortcut to erase rating not working
Post by: ralphberner on January 05, 2012, 12:28:38 pm

CTRL+SHIF+0 to set the rating to 0 is not working for me. The others for rating 1 to 5 are working. Tried it with build 17.0.62 now, but observed it quite a while ago already.   :-\

It sure doesn't.

The MCC :

  mc17.exe /mcc 10023,0

works correctly, and the resource is defined properly:

    <Entry Key="Ctrl;Shift;0" Command="10023" Param="0" />
    <Entry Key="Ctrl;Shift;1" Command="10023" Param="1" />
    <Entry Key="Ctrl;Shift;2" Command="10023" Param="2" />
    <Entry Key="Ctrl;Shift;3" Command="10023" Param="3" />
    <Entry Key="Ctrl;Shift;4" Command="10023" Param="4" />
    <Entry Key="Ctrl;Shift;5" Command="10023" Param="5" />

so there's something else going wrong.

Edit: The comment in the header file says:

  10023   MCC_SET_CURRENTLY_PLAYING_RATING   int nRating (0 means ?)

Did it ever work?

Confirmed.

Ctrl+Shift+9 reaches the translator, but not Ctrl+Shift+0.  Is it possible some other software eats that shortcut?

I'll keep digging.

Nice find.

The article indicates it applies to Vista, and apparently not Win 7 (at least according to the article, which suggests going to a useless Win 7 Tech Support landing page).  Oddly, in Win 7, the binding is already set to Left Alt + Shift, which shouldn't conflict, but it apparently does.

There are additional choices for Ctrl + Shift, Not Assigned, and Grave Accent (`).  Setting to Not Assigned or Grave Accent allows Ctrl + Shift + 0 to work.  Ctrl + Shift does not, of course.  But then, reverting back to Left Alt + Shift allows it to work too.  Curious.  Might the settings not be reflected in the UI properly?
