Global hotkey support

[Liam]

Hey, just letting you know I added global hotkeys to 3tene using a program called ThreeTeneHelper

https://github.com/TomDobbelaere/ThreeTeneHelper/releases/tag/v0.1.0

You press F2 to focus 3tene, then press any shortcut keys you have bound in 3tene itself. It will automatically shift focus back to whatever application you were using.

So for example if I had "Happy" expression bound to F3 in 3tene, I could press F2 and then F3 to select it while I was in another program or game.

While you were developing this, did you see any way to add a hotkey to some of the 3tene functions? Idk if its open sourced, but I'm looking to hotkey leap motion tracking so it doesn't go wild while im not using it but is easy to begin using on the fly.

Is there a way to return to the game im playing? it takes me back to steam window instead of the game

Sorry if it's not working as you'd expect, strange that it's taking you to the Steam window.
Normally it checks what you have focused, switches to 3tene, and then switches back to what was focused, so I don't know why that's happening. Your game should be the focused window when you use the hotkeys.

Probably the fullscreen? In windowed it works

Damn, I thought I tested with fullscreen games. Sorry about that.

No problem! Actually it’s pretty amazing 🤩 just that little detail

sadly doesn't seem to work properly, it only works when i have 3tenehelper in focus, and can't switch back. when i have any other window in focus and press F2 it just makes the 3tenehelper window flash in the taskbar and does nothing else
maybe it's a problem on my end, do you have any idea how i could fix this? i did run as administrator
