Representation shortcut

Hi all,

 

We use representation a lot our current workflow is;

Select parts / subassembly's > right mouse button > move mouse > left mouse button to select "representation..." > select the right one in the pop up menu

 

We would love to cut down the mouse movements and have a flow like this;

Select parts / subassembly's > press shortcut > select the right one in the pop up menu

 

I am fine with a few ilogic code lines, to make our own shortcut, but i don't know how to create it.

 

Inventor doesn't have it own shortcut to representation, see also; https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/inventor-ideas/representation-quick-key-shortcut/idi-p/6835719

Hope someone can help us

If you set up this marking menu, you can CTRL+right click and then select the representation after selecting a part/sub-assy.

You can even CTRL+ drag in the direction of the representation command to save another click.
