      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 πŸ˜•

        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 πŸ˜„


          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...
