i have an issue with the shift key where i would add a command with it and it works while i am using Cross if i dont close it, but as soon as i close and reopen to verify the shift commands they do not work. Ive tried several times to see if i made mistakes but i get the same result! :redface: :eek: :cry: can someone please help a brotha out?

You could use mine....

What's the other key you combine with the shift. Might be the combination somehow.

These are the default for removing locators 1-8 for the active deck.. Works for me; just '&'
doesn't work but that seems a different problem as this doesn't work in more situations (outside Cross).

You may want to try a different mapping source (min PC/L 2.3 vid)

My laptop is a 17 inch so i do have the similar keyboard style to a desktop... i will try the way you suggest mr clark :cool: but i shouldn't have to remap EVERYTIME :eek:

I did mean to say it should work as the key combinations are in use by default.
If you use the mapping editor in Cross you should even get a warning before change is saved when it was already assigned.
