I can’t get any of my hot keys to create a new note for DTP.
I tried using the default combination in system preferences>keyboard>services, but using that combination only returns a error sound.
I Changed the key combination to a few obscure combinations only to get the same result. (obscure meaning things like ctrl-opt-cmd-
I tried setting up a key combination in Devon preferences but any combination I type in results in an alert dialog (Note: it would be helpful if this presented some additional feedback as to what the alert was about. Simply presenting “alert” isn’t much help). I tried many combinations but nothing seems to work.
I’m guessing this is cockpit error rather than a software problem so I’d appreciate any suggestions on the source of my problem.
The preference for Take Note is in DEVONthink’s Preferences > Sorter, not System Prefs. If you’re setting a hotkey for a Service, that’s something else.
Are you running any other keyboard utilities, text expanders, etc. ?
I just hard deleted my hotkeys (via Terminal), reset my Take Note in Preferences > Sorter to Option-N and it works as expected.
