NEW! Sketch Toolbox Hotkeys: custom hotkeys accessed from the Sketch Toolbox!

Wouldn't it be great if you didn't have interrupt your workflow to select a graphic with your mouse pointer?   Wouldn't it be great if Fusion featured user-defined hot keys- something wanted by... well, everyuserever.

I'm asking for your support for the following implementation- a method that wouldn't be in conflict with any existing hot keys:

Empower hot key binding to Sketch Toobox contents.   Say you've placed Extend in your Toolbox, and bind that command to the "e" key.   The next time you want to extend a line, simply type "s" for Toolbox, then "e" for extend.   These hotkeys would only function while the Toolbox is open- so there would be no conflict with imposed hotkeys- more importantly, the mouse hand is left to do what' it's best at- selecting features, instead of commands.   Commands are left to the keyboard hand.

The natural way of things presently is to move your pointer toward the element you want to manipulate- then be forced to move the pointer elsewhere to access a command... then move it back to use the command.   Let's acknowledge the way we work- and adapt the tool to our work flow, rather than waste energy and time adapting to the tool.

Support this change at the link:
