Hot key without a Menu Item
I want to make a few Keyboard shortcuts but i don't necessary need the menu items as well. Is that possible?
This adds a callback function to the Scene view - you can check in there for key code events. The initialize on load attribute makes it install the callback when Unity loads the project.
[InitializeOnLoad]
class MyKeyDetector
{
static MyKeyDetector ()
{
SceneView.onSceneGUIDelegate += CheckKeys;
}
public static void CheckKeys(SceneView view)
{
Event current = Event.current;
if (current.type == EventType.KeyDown && current.modifiers == EventModifiers.Control && current.keyCode == KeyCode.G)
{
Debug.Log("control G pressed!");
}
// ...
}
}
Nice! I was hoping to be able to use something simpler like the $$anonymous$$enuItem since it can detect Combinations easily (alt+shift+1 for example). But this could work as well since i was thinking to also create a window to edit the hotkeys.
I am going leave the question open for a bit more just in case we get any other input on this! if not ill accept you answer! Thanks for you input!
Just for those wich are looking for an easier solution use : ShortcutAttribute
/// <summary>
/// Create a new MyCustomComponent in the selected GameObject
/// </summary>
[Shortcut("MyCustomAsset/Add MyCustomComponent", null, KeyCode.P, ShortcutModifiers.Shift)]
public static void AddComponentToSelectedGameObject (ShortcutArguments shortcutArguments) {
GameObject[] selection = Selection.gameObjects;
foreach(GameObject currentGO in selection) {
if (currentGO.AddComponent<MyCustomComponent>() != null) { Debug.Log("Add MyCustomComponent"); }
else{ Debug.Log("Not Add MyCustomComponent"); }
}
}
Then you can manage the shortCut in the Unity ShortucutManager :
