I'm trying to figure out how to add shortcuts into the shortcut box

in the step file, here's the code:


;; APP ;;

*Popup "APP" !New !PopupAppTasks
*Popup "SHORTCUTS" "!DynamicFolder:$LiteStepDir$shortcuts"

and that's all it says. i assumed that this snippet = all shortcut files in the litestep dir would be in this box. but that's not happening.

pointers? *please dont yell*

this is from the ots1 setup, where there was a folder in your litestep directory that you would put shortcuts into, i.e. c:\litestep\shortcuts... i think this was removed from ots2 though, so the folder wont be there, but you can create it

thanks doy.

if the theme had been properly configured according to v1 of the OTS spec., it would have worked just fine now.

'$ShortcutsDir$' should have been used instead of '$LiteStepDir$shortcuts'.
