    SRL Player Form, Script Start Hot key, or highlight
    Have the player form run with the start key highlighted, or add a hot key for it.
    I was wondering if it was possible to have a hotkey for the start button on the player form, or maybe having the player form start with the Start key highlighted.

    the Player form currently starts as


    I was wondering if it could be changed to start as



    So it would be easier to initiate scripts with the saved settings from the previous run.

    Actually I think this is possible, you can try it if you want.. I think it's playerform_tform.setactivecontrol(playerform_start_script_button)

    Try this:
    Open up srlplayerform.simba in misc folder, and change PF_Init() (right at the bottom) to this:

    Simba Code:
    procedure PF_Init(); Native;
    var
      i: integer;
    begin
      PF_Create();
      PF_AddComponents();
      PF_Defaults();
      PF_LoadSettings();

      try
        playerform.mainform.setactivecontrol(playerform.btnStart);
        playerForm.mainForm.showModal();
      except
        print('Uh-oh failed to show playerform', TDebug.ERROR);
      finally
        playerForm.mainForm.free();
        for i := 0 to 1 do
          playerForm.__btnBmps[i].free();
      end;
    end;
