Hello,
I've decided to give the new Business Client 6 a try, in exchange for the SAP GUI I've been using so far. There's a slight problem with some hotkeys that I noticed almost immediately. In SAP GUI dialog fields, you can use Ctrl+Left and Ctrl+Right to navigate the contents of the field by jumping backwards of forwards to the previous/next word. I actually use these hotkeys a lot. In the NWBC, they do something entirely different: Move the tabs around (which is cool too, but not what I expected). Is there a way to re-map the hotkeys?
Thanks
Volker
Hi Volker, hi everyone,
NWBC 5.0 and BC 6.0 use the same NwbcOption.xml files (1 for User, 1 for Admin) and evaluate all the settings that they support.
So BC 6 should evaluate the hotkeys too.
Are you saying that the hotkeys are working in NWBC 5, but not in BC6?
Best wishes,
Julie R Plummer.

Hello, Julie,
sorry, it took a while to try this out. I can't comment on NWBC5, but here is what I did:
So apparently, BC6 either isn't interpreting these settings, or it's not reading the file at all. I tend to believe that it's ignoring the file altogether, because when I enter some random garbage that turns it into an invalid XML file, BC6 doesn't even throw an error message on startup.

Hi Volker, I've made exactly the same tests your describing and it works. Be careful you have to uncomment the whole blog - currently it is gray. We'll have to change that with the next patch. Please try it again. Info: Configuration with NwbcOptions.xml To predefine settings for all end-users, you have to adapt the XML template ( *xml.template) under the following path and save it as an XML file ( *.xml): C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\SAP\NWBC\NwbcOptions.xml.template for Microsoft Windows Server 2003 C:\ProgramData\SAP\NWBC\NwbcOptions.xml.template for all other operating systems........ https://help.sap.com/saphelp_uiaddon10/helpdata/en/4c/5bdad097817511e10000000a42189b/content.htm Regards, Sandra
Hi Sandra,
it still doesn't work for me, and I've run into a number of additional issues with the XML parsing, error handling and especially the remote options handling which appears to be seriously broken. I've raised an incident (133415/2016) since this has come to a point where it's actually blocking a current project - hopefully we'll be able to find a resolution quickly.
Best regards
Volker
Hi,
I have exactly the same problems Volker describes. I did some additional digging:

At least for my problem I found the solution. The section for alternating the key bindings is only evaluated if there is a NwbcOptions.xml-file in the same folder as the template (C:\ProgramData\... in recent systems). It is NOT evaluated when activated in the file located in the users appdata folder (%appdata%\SAP\NWBC\NwbcOptions.xml).
Hello everybody,
I'm faced the same problems as Volker mentioned.. The default hotkeys prevents me from using SE80 at known productivity. I was too lazy to investigate this issue any further but in my opinion a smarter default is necessary. I can't see the benefit for switching the open tabs in NWBC 6 with CTRL+Left and CTRL+Right.
I'll be glad if this concern will be fixed (maybe an easy configuration dialog?) in the next patchlevels.
Thanks in advance,
Daniel Sonnabend

Hi Volker,
it's possible in NWBC 4.0 and 5.0 - have a look at C:\ProgramData\SAP\NWBC\NwbcOptions.xml.template.
At the bottom of the file you can find informations about changing the hotkeys.

Florian

Hi Florian,
apparently that file no longer exists with version 6.
Perhaps Julie Plummer would like to comment...?
Thanks
Volker
