Create New Playlist "Command+\" on Foreigner Keyboard?

[Spidouz]

Hi Guys,

I do use a Foreigner Keyboard (AZERTY, French Layout for instance), and the shortcut are in the same place of the QWERTY... which means, not in the same keys.

For instance, the bottom row of keys, I do have Undo, Cut, Copy, Paste, exactly as a QWERTY Keyboard, but it's on W X C V. (does make sense?)

So, the CMD+Z (on QWERTY) becomes CMD+W (on AZERTY).

That's practical to keep habits, but I can't find the shortcut equivalent of "CMD+\" to create new Playlist.

Any thoughts?

Actually I don't think that 1 is working @ all... Try the Duplicate shortcut & see if that works...

Hey BB..

It Doesn't work for quite a bit of ppl; & in the Manual, thatz the way is reads (so I thought)

The Manual has the Mac and Windows keystrokes reversed.

The \ key on a US keyboard is farthest on the right above the Return key.

Yeah Rail but nuthin works (@least on PC) Duplicate works fine but 'new' is a "like'ta notta" (if u hit it, it's like'ta notta gonna work)

That's what we need to hear Mr Walker. And I think that it is a typo in the Pro Tools Shortcut Guide.

Yeah it definitely is.. Rail stated that too.. I guess they can get a pass on one typo

Putting this here since i had to find the answer myself after finding nothing on forums and ProTools guides :

On a French Layout AZERTY keyboard on a PC (on Pro Tools 2020 5.0 at least) :

- Create New Playlist : Start (Windows) + * (next to the "Enter" key)
- Duplicate Playlist : Ctrl + Start (Windows) + * (next to the "Enter" key)
