I'm trying to get a workflow in which I can save presets without touching the mouse. For vsts that use fxb I'm there, I can rename. But for muxes, I have no good workflow. I can create a shortcut for 'save as preset file', but this brings a modal windows where I have to click 'new file'. This button doesn't use the windows convention of 'alt fist letter of the button name' to produce a shortcut that presses the button. So a click cannot be avoided.

Any workaround?

Also, any way to assign shortcuts to the browser window? ie I don't want to have to drag presets, but simply press enter and get the preset assigned to the last used mux. Focusing the browser window with a shortcut would be lovely (right now I can toggle, but that doesn't give the browser focus so I can navigate the presets with arrows.

First of all, please note that it is not a MuTools ambition to make MuLab / MUX Modular Vst 100% keyboard controllable. At the contrary, i think a pointing device (mouse, touch, ...) is inevitable.

That said, here some replies:

In M7 pressing Alt+N will correspond to that New File button.

This should be possible with the Select Next and Redrop function, but there seems to be a prob there. Will check and fix in M7.
