Created attachment 147856 [details] screenshot of KB shortcuts *after* digikam restart. Note the active scheme is LT Photo! SUMMARY *** Custom keyboard shortcut definitions (aka schemas) are not persistent between sessions. On digikamp start all KB shortcuts are initially undefined and need to be manually loaded by "refreshing" the schema selection. I am assuming persistent KB shortcut definitions is the desired behavior. So I submit this report. STEPS TO REPRODUCE Part 1 - Create a custom KB scheme from Defaults 1. Settings - Configure KB Shortcuts - manage schemes 2. Default scheme: more actions - export scheme 3. more actions - new scheme named e.g. LT Photo (creates an empty scheme) 4. more actions - import scheme 5. define / change a shotrcut: e.g. Edit geeolocation with ctrl Y 6. LT Photo scheme: more actions - export scheme (just to be pro-active :-) Part 2 - close digikam / start digikam OBSERVED RESULT All KB shortcut definitions are lost. E.g. F3 for preview in thumbnail view. EXPECTED RESULT KB shortcuts from previous session are available SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Windows: w10 Pro 19043.1586 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION To recover KB shortcuts: Settings - Configure KB Shotrcuts - manage schemes Observe that the active scheme is LT Photo but all definitions are gone! Click on current scheme LT Photo (modified) shortcuts are correctly loaded. I have saved the exported KB schemes not in the default digikamp/bin but elsewhere. Maybe this is significant. And BTW: Thanks for an awesome application! FRizzo
This keyboard shortcuts editor comes from the KF5 Framework and we can't change anything about it in principle. If you create your own scheme, you have to select the option "Save shortcuts in scheme" under "More Actions". Then self-created shemas will work the next time you start it. Maik
