Set shortcut with DzActionMgr::addCustomAction?

Omniflux

I am unable to set a shortcut with DzActionMgr::addCustomAction. Can someone confirm it does not work, and I am not just doing something incorrectly?

I just posted a script in the thread Selecting the Active Viewport script or hotkey.

I was trying

MainWindow.getActionMgr().addCustomAction ('Action Text', 'Action Description', '{...}', false, 'Alt+1');

but no shortcut was set. I ended up calling DzActionMgr::setCustomActionShortcut to set the shortcut after creating the action instead.

Have you tried using http://docs.daz3d.com/doku.php/public/software/dazstudio/4/referenceguide/scripting/api_reference/object_index/actionmgr_dz#a_1adc4cad65f9921c87e64008f6e6f6ac40 on ana ction with a shortcut to double-check the formatting?

Yes, I did.

Thanks for verifying. I have opened a ticket (#408745) for this issue.

I am told you should watch the change log, which sounds promising.
