Mapping arrows on keyboard

[m0ute]

Hi,

I was wondering how to map in Standard.kbd.cfg the arrow keys (left & right arrows). Can you help me?

Thank you,

Alexandre

The standard shortcuts are defined in a text file, and can be changed by the user.

Code: Select all

Linux: /usr/share/mixxx/keyboard/Standard.kbd.cfg
MacOS X: <Mixxx bundle>/keyboard/Standard.kbd.cfg
Windows: <Mixxx directory>\keyboard\Standard.kbd.cfg

If you save your edited file as Custom.kbd.cfg at the corresponding path , Mixxx will use this file instead on re-launch.

Arrow keys are mapped with "Up","Down","Left","Right"

Example

Code: Select all

[Channel1]
LoadSelectedTrack Left
[Channel2]
LoadSelectedTrack Right

This would load a selected track from the library in either Channel 1 (Left arrow) or Channel 2 (Right arrow)

Note:
Looks like there is a bug with Modifiers and arrow keys, e.g. if you want to use "Shift+Left" it might not work (at least it does not work for me on MacOS).

Thanks, this is exactly what I wanted to know.

FYI, Shift+Arrows doesn't work for me either (Mixxx 1.9.0 & Mac OS 10.6).
Nice software by the way, can't wait to see how it's gonna evolve
