You can also access the player commands using the numeric keypad. This is useful if you don't have a multimedia keyboard, and don't want to have to press multiple keys to control the player. By default, these shortcuts are active when the numeric keypad is disabled (i.e. when Num Lock is off -- see Player Configuration for details) :
| Play (selected Tracks) Now (can be changed by modifying 'Double-click action') | <Enter> (numeric pad) |
| Play/Pause | <0> (numeric pad) |
| Stop | <.> (numeric pad) |
| Previous Track | <7> (numeric pad) |
| Next Track | <9> (numeric pad) |
| Back 5 seconds | <1> (numeric pad) |
| Forward 5 seconds | <3> (numeric pad) |
| Volume Up | <8> (numeric pad) |
| Volume Down | <2> (numeric pad) |
| Balance Left | <4> (numeric pad) |
| Balance Right | <6> (numeric pad) |
| Balance Center | <5> (numeric pad) |
| Show 'Now Playing' | <+> (numeric pad) |
When the application is minimized, you can still control the player by performing 'Mouse gestures' over the system tray icon:
| Restore application | Double-click icon |
| Play / Pause | Click icon |
| Previous Track | Drag left on icon |
| Next Track | Drag right on icon |
| Volume Up | Drag up on icon |
| Volume Down | Drag down on icon |
