Can't get custom key working...

[jaredgoertzen]

Before this became open source I had my "up" arrow key set to paste the settings from the previous image I was on. Can't get the custom key set to work now... Any ideas??

This is what I set:
{ "mod": "0", "key": "126", "adj": { "Develop: Settings": "Paste Settings From Previous" } },

Thanks for any help out there :)

thanks

@ilquare I actually stopped using this product. I switched to Better Touch Toolbar and haven't looked back! Lots of awesome customizability.

If anyone is still looking for how to do this, I think I found the answer in this Standard [VSCO].keysjson layout.

In this case they're assigning the / key (44) and remapping it to the default Lightroom keyboard shortcut:
option + command + v for "Paste Settings from Previous". This is represented as mod key 12 (option is 4 and command is 8, so 4 + 8 = 12) and key 9, which is "v".

I haven't tested this with the up arrow but this should make it work:

    {
      "mod": "0",
      "key": "126",
      "adj": {
        "_RemapKey": {
          "mod": "12",
          "key": "9"
        }
      }
    },

For finding the key codes, I came across this helpful keyboard map in another post:

Note: the modifier keys have their own internal codes in VSCO Keys. From what I could find, these are the mod key values, including the different values for multiple modifier keys:

1: shift
2: control
3: shift + control (1 + 2)
4: option
5: shift + option (1 + 4)
6: control + option (2 + 4)
7: shift + control + option (1 + 2 + 4)
8: cmd
9: cmd + shift (8 + 1)
11: cmd + shift + control (8 + 1 + 2)
12: cmd + option (8 + 4)
13: cmd + option + shift (8 + 4 + 1)
14: cmd + option + control (8 + 4 + 2)
15: cmd + option + shift + control (8 + 4 + 1 + 2)

With this knowledge, it should be possible to create new complex shortcuts or remap just about any Lightroom menu option (even those without existing shortcuts if we use the Mac OS Application Keyboard Shortcut overrides).

Hope it helps someone!
