Hey guys 
There is a slight error in the Project menu.
Both Project Settings and Project Targets are assigned the letter P when navigating using ALT.
Both have keyboard shortcuts assigned to them. You can also hold the alt key and toggle through them.
Yes. Of course.
But it seemed odd to me.
Plus, I’m currently putting together a set of “universal” macros for which I want to avoid using Scrivener’s shortcuts as much as possible ; and this specific one is not working.
It works sometimes, but I randomly end up on one or the other (probably depending on where in the software -what focus- I launch it from or I don’t know - I gave up for this one function).
Thanks, I’ve logged the key conflict for the developers. You should be getting them in the order listed, so Alt, P, P would go to Project Settings and Alt, P, P, P would go to Project Targets. But if that’s not working for your macro, you could try just using the down arrow to select the one you need.
Thanks MM
Here’s what : I had already tried using the down arrow instead. But, doing so, one then needs to end the macro with “enter”.
And where using “P” gave random results, this time I would randomly have a line break inserted in the editor. It is like when using a macro with repetitions inside a single menu or sub-menu, some keydowns are lost - or, perhaps just the opposite, buffered and spitted out one extra time afterwards. (Whether it’s a repeated P in this case, or a down arrow.)
Well that’s odd. Out of curiosity, what are you using to create the macros?
I am using Comfort keys, having a blast running Scrivener on a 10" win10 tablet.
(By the way, since this one Scrivener shortcut ain’t focus dependant, I just ended up using it. So it works. – I have other reasons to want to avoid the shortcuts, but it’d be somewhat uselessly confusing - to me, the least (the “confusing” part, that is) - to explain per cases. I’m just at 1.0 . I’ll later rebuild the whole thing planned better, once I’ll have the potential key conflicts all sorted out.)
While we’re at it, there is something else that doesn’t work :
Where the “select sentence” feature is very useful to run automations in this context, when the option is checked for Scrivener to replace … with an ellipsis, it then won’t see it as a final punctuation. Therefore also selecting the next (or previous, depending) sentence.
I had to run project replace and revert them all to three consecutive periods.
I find that “errors” and conflicts of just this kind characterize the Scrivener menu system. Ideally, all of these command assignments would be customizable on the menu as well as under keys – the menu structure itself should be customizable.
Here’s an interesting one:
Select a word or two.
Right click to bring up the context menu (or use the right menu key if you’ve got one)
Now, using the keyboard, and based on the indicated shortcut, run the command to Set Selected Text as Title.
I experience Scrivener’s menus as consistently frustrating, except for the bunch of frequently used menu paths I’ve got memorized, not because the menus are so full and deep and rich with advanced complex features one doesn’t encounter in everyday word processors, but because of how that goodness is organized and named and/or described. Mostly, I’d like to be able to customize the menus and put commands where I want them, with the underline shortcuts that make sense for me. But I wouldn’t expect to see that too soon. The standard here in my experience is Reaper, where every command can be placed under any key, menu, or button, and strung together into macros.
But I’ve set many key shortcuts in Scrivener. It’s nice that you can use the Win key. Not all programs do.
I never heard of Comfort Keys. It looks like fun. I love programs like those. But AHK rules my world! 
Oh the time I’ve wasted in pursuit of automated efficiency. 
Indeed, AutoHotKey is cool too.
I use it to run a few scripts. (But only a few in my case.)
The main difference between AHK and comfort keys being that the latter is a fully customizable touch keyboard on top of being able to run custom macros. 
With it, using the touch keyboard I tweaked for myself, I’m running Scrivener on my tablet without anything else than the tablet itself. No physical keyboard. No mouse.
It works.
I’m revising / editing my latest novel lying in my bed. It feels just like holding a book, but being able to edit it.
It rocks.
I like the toolbar icons for each and group together so don’t have to remember keyboard shortcuts for tasks not used all the time like copy and paste and match style
