Assign shortcut to run script - Automation Blocks

Hello all,

 

How can I assign a native shortcut inside premiere pro to run an Automation Blocks script?

 

I saw in the knowledgebase that there are workarounds with 3rd party apps, but that is not elegant, there should be a Premiere Pro native way to do this.

Premiere Pro does not support assigining keyboard shortcuts to features of third party tools like Automation Blocks, unfortunately. If you want to trigger running a particular Automation Blocks script via keyboard shortcut, you find a workaround here:

(in particular the sections about Auto Hotkey, Automator and Keyboard Maestro)
