FR: Key command for XML export

As per the title, could we please have a key command to export XML?

Also, it would be really helpful if settings chosen in the export window could be preserved for future exports in other files. Not sure if that bit is possible.

Thanks.

Perhaps related, Jump Bar seems to yield a command called Export File, which seems to do nothing.

I wonder if this thread will be any help … ?

Thank you Mark, it certainly solved the “Export File” mystery, and Daniel gave a thorough (power-usery) workaround to assign it to audio file export. I would hence assume it’s also possible to adjust to “point directly” to MusicXML export as well; but even though I’m not averse to touching config files, this is a thing that’s “Keyboard-Maestro-able” in less time than it took for me to write this reply.

Here is the edit that needs to be added to keycommands_en.json file to get a shortcut (I assigned Ctrl+Shift+Cmd+E on Mac) to MusicXML export dialog.

{
“File.Export?FilterID=MusicXMLExportFilter” : [ “Meta+Ctrl+Shift+E” ]
},

(the “Meta+Ctrl+Shift+E” can be any key command you choose)
