Create a keyboard shortcut for today's date

Post by abinacc »

We would like to fill today's date in a date field by pressing Enter (just like Adobe), but this function does not work at PDF X Change. PDF X Change does have a lot of keyboard shortcuts, but i can't find something simular. It is possible to create your own keyboard shortcut: https://help.pdf-xchange.com/pdfxe ... ts_ed.html. Can someone tell me which ID i should use for this? Thanks in advance!

Hello Abinacc,

Unfortunately the keyboard shortcuts offered there would not be able to affect this. I will forward your request to the Dev team so that we can see about implementing such a function as a default however, as that does seem to be a commonly accepted handling for such fields.

Kind regards,
