How can I disable the alt key related menu shortcut?

Post by ssc505684708 »

Back to the days of PDF xChange 6, nothing happens if “alt” key is pressed.
Version 7 update bring this new feature, and it’s activated under both “Classic UI” and “Ribbon UI”.

This new feature interrupt of some of the global hotkey of windows, which I setup with Autohotkey script.
How can I disable this quick access function ??

My gratitude to the xChange Team!

Hello ssc,

Thank you for the request, it is possible to prevent the icons from appearing in the classic UI (via the Customize UI menu), but currently there is no method to completely disable the Alt key functionality. I apologize for any inconvenience that this has caused.

If we can see some additional support for this request, I will be able to make a formal request to offer such a function in a future build, but at this time, I am afraid that I cannot make any promises about implementation.

Kind regards,
