Chapter 7
Command Key Equivalents

Any command you have added to SimonSays can have a Command Key Equivalent.  With Command Key Equivalents, you can execute the most complicated macro by holding down a couple of keys.   We'll take you step-by-step through Command Key Equivalent usage. 

Setting a Keyboard Equivalent

1.	Go to Preferences and select the command key sequence.
The command key(s) that all the macros will be activated by are selected here.  It is recommended you don't use Command or Command Shift.  

NOTE:  Every SimonSays command is set to use the same command key(s), so if you set the preferences for command key(s) as Command and assign some SimonSays words and later change the command key(s) to Command Shift, all the old commands are now Command Shift also.

2.	Go to SimonSays main menu and select a macro for assigning a command key equivalent.  Hold down your command keys and press a single letter.
For example, if you chose the default command keys of  Alternate Command, press and hold the Alternate Command keys and type '1'.  The command key(s) '1' will be displayed to the left of the macro name. 

3.	To replace the Command Key equivalent, go through step 2 again, it will overwrite the key.

Deleting a Keyboard Equivalent

1.	To delete the Command Key Equivalent, go through step 2 in the Setting a Keyboard Equivalent, but use a space character, it will overwrite the key with a space which is ignored in SimonSays.
