Re: [vassalengine] Global Key Command to a Deck

Hi Dave,

For the Re-shuffle, you can specifiy a Hot-key in your Deck to do the reshuffle,
then you can use a Global Hot Key (not a Global Key Command) to send the Hot-key
to initiate the reshuffle. Unfortunately, you can't set a Hot Key for the
Reverse command, so you can't use this technique for Reverse.

- A Global Key Command sends a 'Key Command' to counters, but not game
components like Decks and Toolbars.
- A Global Hot Key sends a 'Hot Key' to game components like Decks and
Toolbars, but not to counters.

Regards,
Brent.
