Please, add possibility to assign a user's key for "Pack + Move to archive" (default AS+F5).

OR

add new key into wincmd.ini as:
e.g. PackMode= sum of packing dialogue checkboxes (by default).

OR

new cm 5489

You can assign a hotkey with Shift to cm_packfiles, e.g. Alt+Shift+F5. It's the same as holding down Shift when choosing Files - Pack.

Sorry, I have not understood.
My example: I have assigned cm_PackFiles on F8. (It is convenient for me). I`m deleting source files after packing in 90% of cases. I want, that after pressing my F8, the checkbox "Move to archive" has been marked by default.
Alt+Shift+F5 is too many keys :D

[Shortcuts]
F8=cm_PackFiles
S+F8=cm_PackFiles

Then you only have to press Shift+F8 to Move files into the archive. One key less ;-)

I have

Code: Select all

[Shortcuts] 
F8=cm_PackFiles 
S+F8=cm_PackFiles
But these keys work EQUALLY. Checkbox "Move to archive" in Packing Dialogue will not be marked, if I press S+F8.

I do not move files to ready archives, I make new archives and delete source files.

You are right - my mistake.

With F8 it will only work with:

CA+F8=cm_PackFiles
CAS+F8=cm_PackFiles

Then Ctrl+Alt+Shift+F8 ( or Shift+AltGr+F8 ) will MOVE files into an archive in the SAME panel. But that's even worse to press :-( sorry.

Sorry - that does not work - If you assign Alt+Shift+F5 to cm_packfiles you actually break the default function of Alt+Shift+F5 which is to MOVE files to archive in the dir in the opposite panel.

Therefore I suggest to create a key (e.g. PackMode=) in wincmd.ini with the sum of PD checkboxes
or
new cm_PackDeleteFiles

Thanx for C+F8=cm_PackFiles, this is new good info for me.
