Hello,

Is there any other was to enable/disable Mercury transmit by shortcut on PC except "numpad /"?

I got Logitech K380 keyboard without numeric pad, and I use MT often, so this is bit of a problem.

Tried to assign "numpad /" (with temp full profile keyboard) to Fn+F4 custom shortcut over Logitech Options software, but funny thing it registers "Numpad /"  as "-", so that option does not work.

So, it would be nice if Adobe make it possible for people with small profile keyboards to assign custom shortcut for Mercury Transmit.

Thanx.

As soon as I posted I found solution

In "Adobe After Effects 14.1 Win en_US Shortcuts.txt" changed:

"ToggleTransmit" = "(PadSlash)(macControl+Shift+/)"

to

"ToggleTransmit" = "(PadSlash)(Alt+M)"

so it Alt+M for me.

Keyboard shortcut table is at:

c:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\After Effects\14.1\
