Hi, it seems there should be a way to assign a hotkey to modify text on a current drawing I have on a chart. But I can't find a way to do it anywhere. Can you assist please?

Hello,
Would SC consider adding this as a hotkey in an upcoming release please?
Thanks for any help!

Although it is not a feature / native capability, you can use a keyboard/mouse macro program to do this. SC speak of one, which I use for a few purposes. AutoHotKey.

I am not an expert on AHK, just a small time user, but you should be able to accomplish what you want to do. If you choose to explore using it, my experience has been there is a good community of very smart users on their site.

Hope this helps.
