Would be a huge improvement to my workflow to have more logical/intuitive hotkeys ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/feature-request-longer-hotkeys/?ID=94a0b845-78bc-47ba-83b8-1ed5e170e643#4 Sat, 19 Apr 2025 14:24:45 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/feature-request-longer-hotkeys/?ID=94a0b845-78bc-47ba-83b8-1ed5e170e643#4 DisplayFusion Can you please add my name to that request or kindly point out this request thread/list? I am at an impasse, as it relates to trying to create a hotkey/shortcut that makes sense to switch between monitor profiles.
For example, I would like to use ANY (at this point) keyboard combination with a cooresponding number on the number pad ~OR~ number row.
Switching to Monitor Profile: "2 Monitor Display" w/ the following hotkeys:
Shift + Ctrl + Win + Alt + Num 2
~OR~
Shift + Ctrl + Win + Alt + 2
I've tried many many combinations (some w/out shift, some w/out Alt, ect, ect) and still receive the same error stating th"at "The HotKey bind failed:", and "The hotkey is already in use."!

However, when I try to use that (any) hotkey, nothing happens! I google search that hotkey and nothing comes up.

Is the number row and number pad "off limits" to DisplayFusion? I do have some number row keys bound to Ctrl+Shift+Alt in another program, but that is it!

EDIT:

I could not assign a hotkey when trying from "Manage Monitor Profiles" manager. I had no issues when trying to assign a hotkey from the DisplayFusion "Settings" section. ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/feature-request-longer-hotkeys/?ID=94a0b845-78bc-47ba-83b8-1ed5e170e643#3 Thu, 04 May 2023 09:21:10 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/feature-request-longer-hotkeys/?ID=94a0b845-78bc-47ba-83b8-1ed5e170e643#3 DisplayFusion Thanks Owen! ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/feature-request-longer-hotkeys/?ID=94a0b845-78bc-47ba-83b8-1ed5e170e643#2 Mon, 01 May 2023 15:09:49 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/feature-request-longer-hotkeys/?ID=94a0b845-78bc-47ba-83b8-1ed5e170e643#2 DisplayFusion This is currently on our feature request list, so I've added your vote to it. We'll be sure to let you know if/when we're able to implement it in the future.

Thanks! ]]> https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/feature-request-longer-hotkeys/?ID=94a0b845-78bc-47ba-83b8-1ed5e170e643 Fri, 28 Apr 2023 22:31:13 GMT Binary Fortress Software https://www.displayfusion.com/Discussions/View/feature-request-longer-hotkeys/?ID=94a0b845-78bc-47ba-83b8-1ed5e170e643 DisplayFusion I use a lot of hotkeys, and I would like to map display fusion functions to longer hotkeys such as:

Shift + Ctrl + Up + Left
Shift + Ctrl + Y + T

etc.

Simply extending the length of the hotkey system allows me to create much more logical and intuitive hotkeys. This is because each layer of the hotkey has a logical meaning. It also reduces the chances of my hotkeys conflicting with other programs.

Could hotkey length please be extended? ]]>
