Hi All,

I wonder if it's possible to add a shortcut key function for Add-ins into the next generation of eviews. e.g., If you go to Options in the toolbar, you can then click "O" for General Options, "G" for Graphical Defaults. I wonder if there's a way to add this functionality into the Add-ins toolbar as well as the uidialogs. A suggestion for the former would be to add an option into the install file that indicates what key the programmer wants to use for the add-in. Perhaps there is a similar way to incorporate this into the uidialog menus? Just a thought.

Alt-A will bring up the Add-ins menu. When you designate the menu text for your add-in, you can use a "&" symbol prior to the letter you want to use to quick jump to that entry. Thus if you had an Add-in with menu text of "This is my A&dd-in", then hitting Alt-A, d would launch that add-in.

You can use & in uidialogs too, I believe.
