Locked 0-9 key bindings

Post by iBeej »

Is there some way to circumvent the stupid lock on the 0-9 keys in the key control configuration? I have no idea why Vice decided to lock these keys from being assigned to something other than speed presets when I already have scroll wheel for that.

These keys are extremely valuable real estate for me.

Not currently. However, this is something I have been working on and may become implemented in a future update. Watch for the next test build, which should have this availble for use in concept form.

Ok, you can give it a shot now:

Just let me know if it functions the way you want. The default functionality for these keys will work as before for legacy compatibility, but as soon as you map a new function to one of them, the throttle control function will be bypassed in favor of the function you select.
