I was trying to bring up the clipboard ring by doing a keystroke Ctr-Shift-V and it did not come up.
Instead, my MS VS 2005 came up.
If go to the Edit menu and call it from there, that works.

Hi Arthur,

the only reason can be that you have global Windows Hot key assigned to start Visual Studio.
It has always priority over local ones..
So or disable this global hot key or reassign shortcut for clipboard ring to something else.

Best regards,
Alex.

You are right, just realized that myself.
I would like to reassign the one in HE.
Will it be overwritten by the next HE version upgrade?

{path}\HippoEDIT\data\keymaps\keymap_default.xml will be overwritten.

So just goto "Tools > Keyboard Setting..." and use [Save as...] to save this scheme as f.ex. keymap_Arthur.xml

In future use keymap_Arthur as keymap scheme.

@Alex
works keymap scheme the same as syntax files?
Did i get all possible commands from keymap_default.xml (or from commands.xml ?)
and did user scheme just overwrite default mappings? (as xxx_user.xml does over xxx_spec.xml)

Or did i miss new commands if i use my own user scheme?

Commands are stored in commands.xml, they are not changed by user, always overwritten, always contain complete list of commands and is not keyboard schema related.
So, users are always have compete list of commands in keyboard settings.
Keyboard schema files are only contain assigned shortcuts. So, if you use your own keyboard schema, after update you would get all new commands but no new default shortcuts. You can assign them manually later, if you want.

Idea about inheriting of the default schema by user schema is good but has several problems:

  • How to disable shortcut from default schema (use exclude as with styles?). Then I should also provide some interface, to make this clear...
  • How to do if after upgrade default schema would have new default shortcut assigned to some new command which already used by your schema?
  • Will shortcuts for command from default schema should be overwritten or extended (merged with yours)?

Best regards,
Alex.

You are right, merging default and user scheme is difficult.
F.ex. if you would provide an new command
with an default shortcut the user already use (this shortcut) for an other(older) command.

Hmm, i think i am only want to get sure
that i always get all new commands (without default shortcuts) into
the combo-box of keymap setting to assign my own shortcut.
I mean so i didn't miss new commands only because i use my own keymap scheme.

So as i understood this was the answer of this issue already:
