Open color menu with keyboard shortcut

Post by MedBooster »

How would I open this menu with a keyboard shortcut?

"stroke color" does not open this menu

maybe you could implement a new shortcut to open this menu, so that you can quickly change the color of whatever annotations are selected

Hello, MedBooster

I can pass the idea along, certainly, but I cannot promise that it will be implemented.

I am referring to "more colors" so that you would get the color tray to either add remove or change existing colors or press OK to modify selected annotations

Hello, MedBooster

I am afriad that at this time, this item is not slated for a keyboard shortcut mapping.

slated as in you're not planning to implement it? I think it would be pretty cool... a good way to change stroke color... though I guess if you had the rectangle tool selected it would not understand whether it should change the fill color or the stroke color... so maybe it wouldn't be so useful. Just asking because I'm constantly in that menu.

Hello MedBooster,

Yes - there are currently no plans to implement shortcuts for that menu.
You can assign custom shortcuts to the individual styles though.

Kind regards,
Stefan
