Is there a way to change some of the pre-set hotkeys?
Some are simply unusable unless you have an american keyboard, like the one for "snapshot to disk". If that one could be redefined from Ctrl-` to anything else I'd be happy enough ;)

bye,

Keyboard shortcuts are alas hard coded.

Please, see this JIRA issue: VWR-7974

Lance, I answered that before. Probably you missed it. You can modify the shortcuts in menu_viewer.xml.

For snapshot to disk look for

<menu_item_call bottom="-186" enabled="true" height="19" label="Snapshot to Disk" left="0"
mouse_opaque="true" name="Snapshot to Disk" shortcut="control|`"
useMacCtrl="true" width="243">
<on_click function="File.TakeSnapshotToDisk" userdata="" />
</menu_item_call>

and modify the shortcut to one that works for you.

Excepted that many, many, other shortcuts are hard coded in the sources themselves and the risk of a conflict is high since there are so many (too many) shortcuts defined already...

omg thanks a billion, i reassigned that to ctrl-shift-D instead which seemed to do nothing before... works like a charm.
