Disable Cntl-R?

jrdunson — Wed, 21 Oct 2015 11:54:42 GMT

Is it possible to disable the short-cut, Cntl-R? I just hit it too much... when I intend to do Cntl-E or Cntl-T. I'd really like to disable it...

under document Settings security

you Need to unclick "Reload" AND "admin overrides security"

then Ctrl + R has no effect

I need to clarify... Is there a way just to remove the short-cut only? I still need to reload documents ...via the menu...

[I wouldn't want to go into the Documents\Security Tab each time, enable Reload, then Reload the document, then un-enable it].

The problem is when I accidentally click Cntl-R... it launches a process that takes about a minute to stop... it takes too much time... before I can get to an 'Abort' button... and the [if my performance isn't yet optimized]... it stalls. Sometimes, I have to shut down Qlikview desktop... [and lose changes]... in order just to get back to where I was]... it is especially challenging if I have several QV documents open at once [and have to open them again].

I know the design for a short cut, for Reloading, sounds like a good idea... but practically, I'd rather not have it.

You can always use the free utility called AutoHotKey that can catch any keystroke and disable it.

The AutoHotKey script to do this for QlikView is as simple as this:

BlockCTRLRforQV.ahk:

#IfWinActive, ahk_exe Qv.exe

^r::MsgBox QlikView CTRL+R RELOAD is disabled and must be performed via the menu...

Google AutoHotKey to find the download....
