In short: Poser 13.3.686 keeps resetting my custom shortcuts. Is this a known bug or just me?
- I changed the shortcut to the Dolly Camera. This works.
- I changed the shortcut to the LHand and RHand cameras. These reset after Poser is relaunched.
- I cleared the "memorize object/figure/lights/camera/all" shortcuts. These reset to the default shortcuts after Poser is relaunched.
The actual situation is even a bit weirder:
- I set my shortcuts and they work.
- I shut down and relaunch Poser: My custom shortcuts are gone.
- I shut down and relaunch Poser again: The default shortcuts are back.
My Windows 10 install is working with a German keyboard layout.
In %Appdata%\Roaming, I oddly have two Poser subfolders, "13" and "13_2024_03_13 10_45_57 PM". Both contain a "Accelerators.xml" file.
I tried the following:
- Checked for conflicts.
- Rename the "Accelerators.xml" files to reset my customizations. I then changed my keyboard shortcuts again. The same problem persists.
(I should possibly mention that Poser also resets shortcuts pointing to German-language-specifics keys, such as Ctrl+Ö or Ctrl+Ä.)
I am considering the following workarounds:
- Set my custom accelerators and set the read-only attribute for "Accelerators.xml" to prevent Poser 13 from resetting them.
- Go back to the old ways and edit the "Poser.xrc" file in the \Runtime\ui\ subfolder of the Poser installation directory.
Could anybody perhaps suggest a less brutal way to solve my problem?
