Configuring hotkeys in MyChat Client

 

Set hotkeys combination for MyChat to call it from a tray or for making screenshot and send it to the chat.

 

These hotkeys combination are global and work even if MyChat is minimized or located on the background.

 

Hide chat window in tray using the Esc key

By default this option is enabled. This feature is similar to a cross ("X")  for closing the program.

 

Use global hotkeys

Here you can disable hotkeys if you do not need them or if MyChat conflicts with any other software.

 

"Show main window", the keys combination for calling MyChat Client from any place on the foreground Win+F12.

 

"Send screenshot", the program makes a screenshot (PrintScreen) itself, calls the program on the foreground and send the image to a conference or private dialogue that is opened. By default, Win+F9.

 

How to solve issues with other programs?

If you are using more than one MyChat copy on your computer, or this keys combination is occupied by another program, you will see the following message in the console (Ctrl+~):

 

Error #0041: hotkey "%s" is not registered - the combination is in use by another program

 

In this case you need to assign some other free hotkeys combination to avoid conflicts with other software.
