Add configurable shortcuts

[Former user]

Configurable shortcuts would be nice.

Hi there, this is already possible. You can change the shortcuts via Settings -> Shortcut Mapper -> Tab Plugin Commands -> Scroll down to Toggle Bookmark, Goto Bookmark.

Hello. First of all, thanks a lot for this plugin !!! I'm a user of PSPad software that includes "Quikmarks". A while ago, I wanted to switch to NotePad++ but wasn't able to do so as I missed a lot the "Quikmarks" functionality. Now that it exists thanks to your plugin, I may switch to NotePad++. However, I also would like to be able to configure shortcuts. But it doesn't work properly : even via Settings -> ShortcutMapper->TabPluginCommands->...

What I would like to have : Ctrl+Shift+1,2,3,... -> Toggle Bookmark. Ctrl+1,2,3...-> Go to bookmark. The default shortcuts work but not these ones. I must specify that I use a french keyboard and the 1 is on the same key as &. Perhaps the key is misinterpreted ? Is there a way to force shortcuts in the configuration files of the plugin ? In the list to configure shortcuts, I don't have the character & Thanks for your help

Hi, the default shortcuts of Notepad++ have a higher priority and sadly Ctrl + Shift + 1-5 and Ctrl + 1-5 are already mapped to 1st-5th style actions. However you can remove these default mappings either by using the cumbersome Shortcut mapper dialog or by modifying the file %APPDATA%\Notepad++\shortcuts.xml directly.

Here is an example of my shortcuts.xml with toggle bookmark shortcuts mapped to Ctrl + Shift + 1-9 and goto bookmark shortcuts mapped to Ctrl + 1-9:

<NotepadPlus>
    <InternalCommands>        
        ...
        <Shortcut id="43033" Ctrl="no" Alt="no" Shift="no" Key="0" /><!-- removes default mapping of Ctrl + Shift + 1 -->
        <Shortcut id="43034" Ctrl="no" Alt="no" Shift="no" Key="0" /><!-- removes default mapping of Ctrl + Shift + 2 -->
        <Shortcut id="43035" Ctrl="no" Alt="no" Shift="no" Key="0" /><!-- removes default mapping of Ctrl + Shift + 3 -->
        <Shortcut id="43036" Ctrl="no" Alt="no" Shift="no" Key="0" /><!-- removes default mapping of Ctrl + Shift + 4 -->
        <Shortcut id="43037" Ctrl="no" Alt="no" Shift="no" Key="0" /><!-- removes default mapping of Ctrl + Shift + 5 -->
        <Shortcut id="43039" Ctrl="no" Alt="no" Shift="no" Key="0" /><!-- removes default mapping of Ctrl + 1 -->
        <Shortcut id="43040" Ctrl="no" Alt="no" Shift="no" Key="0" /><!-- removes default mapping of Ctrl + 2 -->
        <Shortcut id="43041" Ctrl="no" Alt="no" Shift="no" Key="0" /><!-- removes default mapping of Ctrl + 3 -->
        <Shortcut id="43042" Ctrl="no" Alt="no" Shift="no" Key="0" /><!-- removes default mapping of Ctrl + 4 -->
        <Shortcut id="43043" Ctrl="no" Alt="no" Shift="no" Key="0" /><!-- removes default mapping of Ctrl + 5 -->
    </InternalCommands>

    ...
</NotepadPlus>

Hope this helps.

Hi.
First, I made the modification in the installation folder of NotePad++. It didn't work. So, I read carefully what you had written and I saw you had said to do it in the %APPDATA% folder.
Then, I made the modification from NotePad++ in the shortcuts.xml file but when I left the file, it was crushed by default settings.
Finally, I made the modification from PsPad and it worked. Right now, I have the shortcuts I expected in NotePad++. I'm going to use it intensively in the next hours. I will let you know if I see any misbehaviour of your bookmarks plugin.
Thanks a lot for your support and for this plugin
