Title: Keyboard shortcuts missing
Post by: Krice on March 16, 2019, 09:49:22 am
I noticed that there is no keyboard shortcuts in settings->editor list. It took me a long time to realize it, because I don't usually edit keyboard shortcuts, but while working on another computer I changed compile current file to Ctrl+F9. The default is 'build' which if I'm being honest should be exactly the opposite way (Ctrl+F9 for compile current file and Shift+Ctrl+F9 for build). However it's a bit of a mystery why keyboard shortcuts are missing in this, because they are both Windows 17.12 release versions. Is keyboard shortcuts a plugin that for some reason just disappeared? Windows 10 update has actually removed some files, for example one update removed a shortcut from desktop for no reason.

Yes, it is a plugin. Sometimes it is called keybinder. Probably it is not enabled/installed.

Wiki says it's a part of 'contrib' plugins and can't be installed afterwards. Isn't it like the idea of plugins to be able to add them later? And why isn't something like keyboard shortcuts part of the program itself. I don't want to use ctrl+shift+f9, it's too much, I'll rather just select compile current file with a mouse device from the menu.

Just rerun the installer and select the proper options.

I am using no installer version, but I guess it wouldn't hurt to use the installer version, just delete everything and reinstall. I think I could also have another version of gcc, but have to check it. Blows my mind why you can't add plugins later.

I don't know what you're talking about. You can install plugins at any time. Plugin installation is not magic!

Did you check to see if the plugin is just disabled?

Plugins -> Manage Plugins

1. All plugins in the list are enabled.
2. How do you install a new plugin?

Can you specify OS and original installation method first?

To reinstall plugins just extract all files again in your case. Then you can remove the ones you don't like.

No, actually I had installed Code::Blocks, I found it from installed programs list. How did I miss that.. I was wondering why nosetup had 60 plugins and I had only 37. I guess I didn't select them when installing. Well I guess I just reinstall it.
