Cool VL Viewer forum

The keyboard shortcut for radar - CTRL+ALT+SHIFT+R - is the same shortcut used by Windows 7 to trigger a computer restart! Every time I've tried that shortcut my pc restarts!! Can we have a new radar shortcut please.

Googling for Windows 7 keyboard shortcuts, I could not find any trace of such a shortcut to restart the computer... and I'm pretty sure Micro$oft won't do such a stupid thing as to assign such a dangerous action to such a shortcut (plus, there is already CTRL ALT DEL to restart the computer, and even this only happens after a confirmation menu is presented to you).

My guess is that you got a custom shortcut defined on your system: simply remove this custom shortcut.

If anyone else encounters this problem, please, let me know... but I'm afraid I'm not going to change the Radar shortcut key just because of one person's specific system configuration.

Finally, if you can't find where the problem is on your system, you may change the shortcut yourself (in the viewer installation directory, edit the skins/default/xui/en-us/menu_viewer.xml file, search for "radar" and change the 'shortcut="control|alt|shift|R"' item to match your new shortcut). Note that you'll first have to find a shortcut that is not already used in the viewer... which might prove difficult.

This is absolutely not a standard Win 7 shortcut.
First time I've ever come across it and I can activate the radar fine on any win 7 system I use.
Even trying that shortcut outside of the viewer (meaning the system should have complete access to it) doesn't restart the PC.
I'd suggest booting into safe mode to make sure no startup programs are loaded and then seeing if the shortcut is in effect. If not,go through and identify what background program or process is assigning it.
