Modifier-less hotkeys work well in 1.5.99 build 1776 (once I found and checked the checkbox that enables it). Thanks for the enhancement.

Hi, I use version 1.6 r17371 but in Windows 7 Ultimate.

I tried to use Ctrl+Num1, Shift+Num1 or Ctrl+Shift+Num1, but these combination don't work.
The same thing for 2~0. You mentioned you made it work, anyone can make this work also?

Greetings all,

I'm evaluating Dexpot 1.5.99 build 1737 on Windows 7 Professional, and I must say that this is one really nice piece of software. But there's one thing that I'm unable to figure out. It appears that I can't use the numeric pad without any modifiers for switching desktops.

If I set Controls -> Switch desktop -> Desktop 1 -> Key combination to NUM 1 without checking any of the Alt/Shift/Ctrl/Win modifiers, it doesn't work - nothing happens when I press 1 on the numeric pad (while Num Lock is active).

However, If I check any of the Alt/Shift/Ctrl/Win modifiers, then that key combination together with num 1 works just fine.

Not sure how other, non-beta, versions of Dexpot behave here. Is this a known limitation (or bug), or just a plain oversight, or am I doing something wrong?

Best regards,
