Hello Loving Altap Salamander 2.54,

I would like you to offer a new, straightforward shortcut key for 'Invert Selection' which currently is set to (Num *) because I am using laptop keyboard and so I have to turn on Num Lock and then hit Ctr+P that is not cool. Loving you more when I see you with (Ctr+~) or (Ctr+') for Invert Selection function in your new version.

You're not Servant Salamander anymore but you're now my assistant administrator.
See you soon with V3 alpha :)

On my notebooks (different Fujitsu-Siemens models) Fn+P works wit NumLock off and P (with no modifier) with NumLock on.

Cool, I have Sony Vaio (VGN model) and Fn+p works fine for Invert Selection - Before this, for many years I was deprived from this function with shortcut key. TY

You can also use Alt+E,I (press and hold Alt, press E and then I, release Alt). I use this on my ThinkPad, which sadly doesn't have the Fn+P feature.

Thank you too SvA. For Invert Selection as my frequent using function "Alt+E I" is long. (Ctr+`) is ideal for this function hope to have this shortcut key in the new version.
TY

You can probably use AutoHotKey in the meantime.
