    Hi guys

    Running bootcamp for 3ds max, and sometimes i still need to use SU on the windows side. I would just really like to import all of my shortcuts i use in SU on the OSX side, but i can only import shortcuts on windows if its in a .dat format? I cant seem to export the shortcuts on OSX and the shortcut file itself is a .plist format?

    Any ideas? Google didn't help me 😕

      Post the .plist file - maybe someone will write a converter.

        Well that would be great for future use! Now i just ended up manually setting up all the shortcuts. Tedious work, but needed to be done that way i guess 😄


        in zip format as i couldnt upload with a .plist extension

          Parsing the .plist is not a problem, but I don't know to translate the Apple codes into the Windows equivalent. Particularly, what does the number 131072 mean?

          Apple Shortcuts File:

          	<string>Z</string>
          	<integer>131072</integer>
          	<string>viewZoomExtents;</string>
          	<string>e</string>
          	<integer>0</integer>
          	<string>selectEraseTool;</string>
          	<string>k</string>
          	<integer>0</integer>
          	<string>toggleDisplayBackEdges;</string>
          

          Windows Shortcuts File:

          0 0 0 H selectDollyTool;
          0 0 0 I selectImageIglooTool;
          0 0 0 O selectOrbitTool;
          0 0 0 A selectArcTool;
          

          Hi

            This should do the conversion... The integers are mod-key codes.
            Read the file for usage...
            load"shortcutPlist2Dat.rb";TIG.shortcutPlist2Dat


            shortcutPlist2Dat.rb

              I've updated the script to include all mod-key combos...
