Problem

Assign Cell Selector file to Function key

Would like to assign different Cell Selector (.csf) files to different funtion keys. For example, pressing F1 would load a steel cell selector file, pressing F2 would load a concrete cell selector file. These cell selector files would show the steel and concrete cell libraries respectively

Solution

Assign a Key-in to a Fuction Key

  1. For (v8i) Go to Workspace > Function Keys.
  2. For (CE) Go to Settings > User > Function Keys
  3. Select the Function key to be changed
  4. In the Action field enter the key-in: mdl keyin cellsel;cellsel openselector <PATH>\file.csf
  5. For example: mdl keyin cellsel;cellsel openselector D:\WorkSpace\Projects\2013\cell\file.csf
  6. Save the Function Key file
