Dear friends

How to add shortcut keys to mouse instead of selecting icon everytime from the menu in ug nx 7.5


thanking you
 

RE: assign the shortcut keys to mouse

How many buttons do you have on your mouse?  Or are you talking about the Spaceball 3D controller?

Also if you're attempting to avoid using menus or toolbars have you looked at using Customize to assign/edit keyboard shortcuts (AKA 'hot keys')?

Dear sir

Yes I want Avoid menu or toolbars. I have 3 buttons in my mouse

Thanking you

RE: assign the shortcut keys to mouse

With a 3-button mouse, you don't have much chance of doing much.  I suggest you learn how to use keyboard shortcuts (AKA 'hot keys') if you're looking for a way of avoiding selecting menu items or toolbar icons.  However, be warned, NX is a product that provides so much functionality that it's naive to think that you can actually be productive without having to deal with menus and toolbars.
