Hi,
I know that LV shortcuts and quickdrop shortcuts are a recurring subject. I remember reading a post about someone a long time ago actually using a second keyboard that would only acts for these but in a faster way than having to manually use ctrl+space+[object]+enter/ctrl+[command]. I cannot find this post anymore but I'm sure someone would be kind enough to repost here here for context? 🙂
Anyway, Logitech launched (like many other companies) their own "programmable buttons control center" that allows you to customize buttons with whatever you want. Obviously more oriented for creative content (like photo/video editing etc.) I keep wondering if such devices (like the stream deck) could be useful for our work.
I currently have an MX master 3, and it's been great, I have a lot of useful shortcuts in labview with it and it saved me ton of time (and it's also fun I'll be honest). As far as I know, a very interesting point from the console they sell is that you can have multi action with 1 click. Got me wondering if we can't use that for very specific shortcuts and use less the quickdrop menu?
Has anyone tried that yet? Either with the logitech or the Stream deck? I'd be interested to hear some feedback 🙂
The price is a bit yikes though...
