How can I assign custom shortcuts using the Python Console?

[Emisphere66]

Hi,

I'd like to have my own shortcuts when working in Painter (besides the ones already available in the Settings, Shortcuts). For instance, I'd like to assign a hotkey to 'Add Black Mask'.
How can I go about doing this?

Thx!

I used Pyside shortcut function in Painter. You could try it.
But you have to avoid current Default key short

Interesting, but do you have any Python sample code to explain how you are doing?

Thanks,

self.btn = QtWidgets.QPushButton('Button01')
self.btn.setShortcut('a')
Hope it could be helpful, One thing you have to do is you need to keep this button's panel stay at the screen, do not to remove it or minimize it into the dock.
