Customizing Commands

[speed804]

Hello,

I set a shortcut key ctrl+alt+i for the import bookmarks command. I can't get the shorcut to work. Do I need to be in a certain view for the shortcut to work? It isn't used by any other commands and I have tried other shortcuts with the same success.

Also, I see that there is a command id. Is this command id available in any way to any other programs? Like via com/activex, commandline, windows send message, or something? I have tried some initial investigation and I can't see it replicated anywhere else. I am trying to automate this function using autohotkey to add a bookmark to each pdf I make.

Also, do you know to what extent pdfxchange editor is setup for accessibility? I tried viewing the accesible objects and couldn't find anything for the actual bookmark title bar, only the bookmarks pane.

Thanks,

Steve

Hi Steve,

Thanks for the post - we've managed to reproduce the issue with the shortcut and will pass this along to the Dev. Team for investigation.

As to the other question - I'll also need to grab the Dev. Team on this one too. The Developer(s) that would be best for this are actually off sick today, so could I ask you to bear with us on this, until they're back and available?

Cheers,

The shortcut only works if you have the bookmarks toolbar active. I managed to automate what I wanted to do by sending a controlfocus to the bookmarks control and then sending my shortcut keys.

Hi Will,

One answer to part of my first question I have figured out. The command id is used by javascript. So I can do this app.execMenuItem("cmd.bookmarksView.import") and it will run the import bookmarks command. That makes this relatively easy to automate which is nice. Now if only you guys would code the commandline to parse javascript code you would have the most useful feature of any pdf program I have seen !

Hi, Steve

Reproduced and will be fixed in the next build. Thanks.

In the future we planning to implement additional feature: you will be able to run any custom JS-script by command line..

Also, do you know to what extent pdfxchange editor is setup for accessibility? I tried viewing the accesible objects and couldn't find anything for the actual bookmark title bar, only the bookmarks pane.

Currently we unsupported the accessibility interfaces (such as IAccessible, IAccessible2). It will be added in future builds.

Best
