How to use Admin Command "Bind"

[Meaghan6277]

Hello! I'm trying to figure out how to use the bind command to bind specific admin commands to new keys. Argument 1 says you need to use a modifier key and then the key you want to assign, but when hitting (example) ctrl+1 (number pad), it won't type anything for argument 1. If I only press 1 on the number pad, leaving the modifier out, it will move to argument 2, but will not do anything when I try to activate the command... HELP! :)

I figured it out and thought I'd update it here in case anyone in the future has the same question.
First, when typing/creating the bind string, you need to spell out "Shift", "CTRL", or "ALT", not just hold down the respective key hoping it works...
Secondly, you need to make sure that the key you're trying to bind to doesn't already have another command bound to it in the settings menu. PS - The number pad numbers do not work.
Thirdly, you need to spell out the full word for each key... i.e. PageUp, PageDown (vs. PgUp, PgDn). I had most success with "delete", "insert", "home", "end", "pageup", "pagedown".

Same principle for making keybinds for other commands.
