althurm Posted September 16, 2011 Posted September 16, 2011 Hello All, Within the autoit script editor I am having a problem with my keyboard. When I press the "-" button that is on the keypad on the right side of my keyboard, it automatically comments the whole line. If I actually want to put a "-" in my code then I have to press the "-" next to the number 0. When I hit the "+" on the number pad on the right nothing at all happens. Has anyone seen this behavior and know how to fix/disable it? Note: I am using a lenovo keyboard model:kb1021 And the SciTE Lite script editor Version 1.79
guinness Posted September 16, 2011 Posted September 16, 2011 This is meant to happen when you use the NumPad keys, it allows for quick commenting and expanding/contracting of code. I think it's a great feature of SciTE & I would also recommend you use the full version of SciTE4AutoIt3 >> http://www.autoitscript.com/site/autoit-script-editor/downloads/ as it's packed full of features.

JohnOne Posted September 16, 2011 Posted September 16, 2011 Same on my keyboard, I think its a feature rather than a bug. I sneakily circumvent it by using the keys that work.

althurm Posted September 16, 2011 Author Posted September 16, 2011 yes i figured that this was a feature. the question was CAN I DISABLE IT?
guinness Posted September 16, 2011 Posted September 16, 2011 (edited) That was one of the questions, I answered: Has anyone seen this behavior? And there is no need to shout, that just irritates people even more.

littlebigman Posted December 11, 2023 Posted December 11, 2023 Over ten years later… I'd rather that the +/- keys on the keypad work as usual. How should I edit the configuration files (SciTEGlobal.properties and SciTEUser.properties, I guess)? The helpfile recommends against editing the SciTEGlobal.properties file: KeypadPlus|IDM_EXPAND|\ KeypadMinus|IDM_BLOCK_COMMENT|\

The helpfile recommends against editing the SciTEGlobal.properties file: Always use SciTEUser.properties as that will override the SciTEGlobal.properties settings and will stay with upgrades!

littlebigman Posted December 11, 2023 Posted December 11, 2023 How should I edit C:\Users\blah\AppData\Local\AutoIt v3\SciTE\SciTEUser.properties so that +/- on the keypad work as usual, and disable the customizing in SciTEGlobal.properties?
Developers Jos Posted December 12, 2023 Developers Posted December 12, 2023 Simply copy the lines from SciTEGlobal.properties into SciTEUser.properties and make the changes: # User defined key commands user.shortcuts=\ Ctrl+Shift+V|IDM_PASTEANDDOWN|\ Ctrl+PageUp|IDM_PREVFILE|\ Ctrl+PageDown|IDM_NEXTFILE|\ Ctrl+F1|IDM_HELP_SCITE| SciTE4AutoIt3 Full installer Download page - Beta files Read before posting How to post scriptsource Forum etiquette Forum Rules Live for the present, Dream of the future, Learn from the past.
littlebigman Posted December 12, 2023 Posted December 12, 2023 Should I copy the whole contents of SciTEGlobal.properties (730 lines) and merge (replace?) what's in SciTEUser.properties? Or should I simply edit SciTEUser.properties and add the user.shortcuts line above?
Developers Jos Posted December 12, 2023 Developers Posted December 12, 2023 Only copy the Keywords that you want to override, so as as indicated: the lines I shown in my previous post!

littlebigman Posted December 12, 2023 Posted December 12, 2023 (edited) "Simply copy the lines from SciTEGlobal.properties into SciTEUser.properties and make the changes:" "Only copy the Keywords that you want to override" So I simply copy/pasted the user.shortcuts line above into SciTEUser.properties, and restarted AutoIt Scite. Thank you. Edited December 12, 2023 by littlebigman
