Suggestion: Ctrl+Space Hotkey for Quick Search... consider changing to different mode?
Suggestion: Ctrl+Space Hotkey for Quick Search... consider changing to different mode?
A recent patch appeared to have set the 'Quick Search...' hotkey to Ctrl+Space. I'm not sure if there was a setting for it prior to this, as I hadn't really used this feature, but this conflicts with a commonly used powershell hotkey Show Intellisense Help ; particularly with how it was configured in 'Default' mode. The documentation states in an ISE, but it happens really in any console or even VS Code. This hotkey in Powershell is helpful, it shows show all parameters that can be passed to a function/cmdlet.
I didn't see that hotkey listed here: https://help.remotedesktopmanager.com/support_keyboardshortcuts.html but I was able to change it. I changed it from 'Default' mode to "When not in Session'. It now uses that hotkey if RDM is the focus, but if I'm in a RDM session running PowerShell or I'm in a local PowerShell session, I can still use the Hotkey for it's native PowerShell function.
I'd like to ask that the 'mode' be changed from 'Default' to 'When not in Session', as the default. I think this would serve a winder number of folks better potentially.

Hello,
We will add it to our shortcut documentation. I will take a note to check if we change the default. The idea was to make it usable from anywhere. The problem is that sometime you want to have the shortcut but you are not focusing the RDM process. For exemple if you have an embedded application. The shortcut does not work if it's not Global
I think that the first time the shortcut is executed, we could ask you if you want to use it as global shortcut or not. What do you think?

Hey David!
I think that's a pretty good compromise, especially if you mention it may conflict with that Powershell shortcut; I think when it's initially executed just a quick way to rebind or change the scope would be acceptable for sure.
