Hello,
Would it be possible to significantly improve the shortcuts interface?
Here are some suggestions:
- Ability to expand the window to full screen
- Ability to add the Description 1 and Description 2 columns
- Add another description field that could only be viewed in the Shortcuts window
- Ability to change the sort order by clicking on the column headers
- Ability to group shortcuts
- Modify the copy-paste behavior when selecting multiple shortcuts. Currently, when copying and pasting multiple shortcuts at the same time, the copy is inserted every other line

I think I have over 250 shortcuts currently. I sometimes have to double my Surface device (e.g., multiple StreamDecks), and when there are 30 shortcuts to copy and paste, it's hell.

If you're already using StreamDecks I highly recommend forgetting entirely about vMix's built-in shortcuts, and instead using Companion.

Honestly, it will be a game changer for you.

Thank you for your reply.
I've already asked myself this question and I think I'd like to switch to it.
But there's one feature of the StreamDeck software that I can't find a replacement for with Companion.
At events, I also use the StreamDeck as a soundbox. These audio files are directly managed by the StreamDeck software, where I can set a different volume for each sound, fade in or out, and choose whether the sound should stop, restart, or overlap when I press the same sound multiple times.

(Sorry if the translation is bad; I'm French and I use Google Translate.)
