I'm not sure if this is under the right section, so please excuse me if it is misplaced. My question is two-fold. First, I'm on a laptop and the FuncKey+PgUp and FuncKey+PgDown adjusts the volumne up and down respectively, and FuncKey+End, switches between muted and non-muted sound. Is there a way to incorporate this into the theme that I am running?

Secondly, I also use Alt+LeftArrow and Alt+RightArrow to go Back and Forward in Internet Explorer. Is there a way to add this functionality to the theme as well?

So in general, I guess my overall question is, how do you add shortcut keys to perform functions in litestep themes?

Thanks in advance

They are called hotkeys. Take it from there.

Yeah, I do know that, but is there a place that I can view all the available hotkeys that could be called? For instance, I'm looking for something like



but I don't know if !VolUp is an available hotkey item.

I doubt you can use the Fn key as a modifier. Mappings based on the Fn key seem to handled by the hardware.

!Volup is not a valid bang...but there is a Volume adjust that comes with grdAmp, GeekAmp and DynaAmp.

Maduin, I would tend to agree with you except for the fact that Fn+Insert still gives me a screenshot like the keyboard mapping says. However, the VolUp and VolDown do not, so it's baffling me. In terms of actually adjusting the volume, do you think I could use LSSlider? It has !SliderVolumeUp bang which might work. On a side note, I haven't been able to locate the bang to be the equivalent of the back button. I've tried !BrowserBack which is my best guess, but I can't seem to find any literature on this.

!BrowserBack is not a valid bang. You can't guess at bangs...you need to get a list from the module you load. If you are using indiestep it is in the !About dialog.

When I display the !About dialog, I do get the system information and developers, but nothing else unfortunately.

try !LSCP then...

You can restore the browsing keycombos by commenting out the alt left and right lines in your personal\hotkey.rc file.

As for volume, i use LSSlider and set my hotkeys to Win PageUp and PageDown

dogbert, you are the man! :o) Worked like a charm on the first try, thanks!
