Hello, Framers,

I’ve recently purchased several ExtendScripts, and would very much like to 
create keyboard shortcuts for them, but I’m stumped. If there’s a simple 
few-step procedure, please share. If it’s complex, perhaps there’s some info 
online that you could point me to as a starting point?

I’m using unstructured FrameMaker 2015 (FrameMaker 13) on Windows 7. The 
specific script/utility I’m working with at the moment is Rick Quatro’s 
ImportFormatsSpecial, but I’ve got a number of other ExtendScripts and (Silicon 
Prairie) plugins that would be much easier to use if there were keyboard 
shortcuts.

I found the general process in Klaus Daube’s doc for FrameMaker 1, 
http://www.daube.ch/docu/files/etb-customising-fm.pdf, on pages 18-16 and  
18-20 (these aren’t page ranges, but pages 16 and 20, in chapter 18). And I 
found his updated doc for FrameMaker 12/13, 
http://www.daube.ch/docu/files/etb-customising-fm12.pdf, which explains the new 
location for the CFG files for the different views. (I’m not quite clear on 
“views” vs. “workspaces”...)



And when I create a customui.cfg, how do I ensure that it doesn’t interfere 
with whatever is adding the ExtendScripts and plugins to the menu in the first 
place? I haven’t figured out what makes these things appear in the FrameMaker 
menu...



I’m sure that this is very easy to do, and the examples in Klaus Daube’s doc 
support that. But the hard part is figuring out just which files to revise 
and/or copy-and-adapt!



Thanks very much,

-Monique
