Key commands Importing & moving cues etc

Post by Istead » Thu Jun 19, 2025 7:46 pm

I use the import cues function a lot to import files from my generic SCS cue file into the unique cue file for the particular event I'm working on.
I find the tick boxes very slow and clunky. Is there a way that you could just click on the list of cues from the menu and use familiar key commands like CTL+A to select all, SHIFT + Click to select a range and CTL + CLick to add indiviudal files? This would greatly speed up using any menus that currently use the tickbox functionality.

In addition could this functionality be expanded to the main editor window so you don't need to enter a menu and go through the current process only to move 6 cues for example? This would certainly speed up editing. Thanks!

Supporting Shift+Click after a Click is certainly a feature we could include. Ctrl+A could also be added, although we do do already have the 'Select All' button. Ctrl+Click is not really necessary as that is the same as the existing Click, ie it selects (or de-selects) the associated cue.

Regarding access to the 'Import Cues' window, once you have the Editor open you can call up this function just by pressing Ctrl+I (I for Import).
