SS4/CE Toggle Keyins

I have nearly every function key tied to a keyin in order to quickly change tool settings on the fly for more expedited drawing creation.  In many cases these come in pairs were F5 and F6 each perform a similar keyin effectually just toggling back and forth between them.

Is there a way to do this with just a single button press to verify the current state and then toggle it to the other.  Or possible single click = keyin-A and double click =keyin-B

  • Unfortunately, this is not possible. You cannot assign a 'double-click' of a function key to a separate key-in from a 'single-click' of that same function key. You can, however, use the Function Keys menu to assign keyin-A to, say, F1 then assign keyin-B to Ctrl+F1 or Alt+F1. This way the only difference between the two key-ins is holding your finger down on a different key while hitting the Function Key.

    Cheers,

  • Oh well I've already used nearly all of the Shift+F#, Ctrl+F#, and Alt+F# number that are easy to reach (F1 to F8) and i've used up F1 to F12. I'll just have to deal with it maybe some time time in the future Bentley can program a toggle feature to the function keys to facilitate this. To clarify F9 to F12 are difficulty to reach with my pinky on ctrl/alt or shift and i try to use function keys with just my left hand so that my right had doesn't have to leave the mouse.

    Thanks!
