To mimic as close as possible the workflow of the DAW I use (Pro Tools). I imagine it won't take me as far as if I learn the software as it is, but it gives me some sweet instant familiarity :) Tab goes to the next transient in Pro Tools, I would make it go the next marker. Horizontal zoom would be R/T.

Ah, understood. Interesting. I've just gotten "into" PreSonus StudioOne 3 Pro and yeah, the KS mapping sets are divergent and not convergent. I'm not a Power-User of my new DAW - don't think I ever will be - so I'm content to stumble along with my CSP and FaderPort8.

Hmm, I'll give your wishes some further thought and maybe I can discover something for myself too - whilst traveling this road.

Thank you. I'm able to find the "Cursor to Right by Edit" and I also can see "Tab" already assigned to another task, so I believe it's possible to use this key.

Yes, custom keyboard shortcut assigning is in the 'Options' menu. If another process has the desired key assignment, change or remove it .

Yeah, I'm aware of that, however I'm not able to input the "Tab" key as a shortcut because when I press it, it acts as a Tab key, changing the focus of the input field to some button. I'm also unable to find the horizontal zoom to be modified, so I wanted some confirmation that it's actually impossible to change it. Thanks.

I guess you can't use the tab key for shortcuts then.

Lots of ways to change horizontal zoom, mouse scroll wheel; up/down keys; up/down arrows on bottom & right timeline.Vertical zoom: Ctrl/Shift up/down) or your own custom keys (w/o Tab). There's a list of Key shortcuts in the help menu as well.

I find Vegas much faster to work then 'SloTools'. Fewer steps getting from point A to point B.

Yeah, I imagine there are faster workflows if I learn Vegas properly :) By the way, "Tab" is already assigned to "TrackView - TrackView.FocusToNext" and this can be seen in the Customize Keyboard option, that's why I believe there's a workaround to make this key available.

I think I figured out how to do it, but boy it is a challenge and a bit risky. From what I can tell, if you make a Custom keyboard map, the exceptions to the default are saved in the KEYBOARD.INI file. Here you can make your commands available by TAB. I am not sure I can explain how to do it, but if you edit the KEYBOARD.INI file with the new commands, it might work.

You think 🤔?  This is NOT for me.

That's a great idea! I was messing around with my ProTools.ini, but before that ... I realized that nothing happens when I press Tab (which is assigned by default to FocusToNext in TrackView and SelectNextTrack in Trimmer). Is this shortcut funcional to you, guys? I thought my Tab could be somehow broken inside Vegas, but I'm able to use Ctrl+Tab as a shortcut.

Unfortunately I realized that writing "Tab" inside the .ini file has no effect. When I open Vegas, the key is empty like I didn't write it. But I made some tests trying to change some other shortcuts and the idea works. Such a nice key, right there ready to be pressed, what a waste ;( I also noticed I'm unable to use Shift+Letter as a combination for navigation shortcuts, would these be Vegas limitations or I might be doing something dumb?

Tab does what it is assigned to do in my version 12 of Vegas. If I hit tab, it goes to the next (in this case, the PROGRAM MONITOR window) and then back to the Trackview window. If I have Mixer View open, it goes to the next audio track and Shift tab goes to previous audio track. What are you wanting it to do? Maybe I can figure out the command.
