No closing the skype window is done with alt+f4. Closing the skype program itself is done with the auto hot key script I spoke of. So this is closing skype not the skype window.

Subject: Re: [Skypeenglish] Running skype from the system tray:: Hi! I wonder what did you mean by "closing Skype" with auto script hotkey. Did you mean "closing" or "quitting"? I'm asking this because Skype can be closed simply by pressing Alt + F4 when it's focused and also because "Focus Skype" shortcut works as a toggle key - type it once it brings Skype into focus where ever it was and type it next time it goes to system tray so I don't see a need for your "close" shortcut. That's why I asked you what did you mean by "closing". If you meant this as "quitting", I'm interested in how you worked this out. Maybe it'll be good idea for Doug to add shortcutsfor "Quit Skype"and a couple of shortcuts for changing status into the scripts. Sometime it's annoying to manually look for different statuses while Skype sits in system tray. And considering hotkeys, here's my list: CTRL + Win + Alt + PgUp = Answer; CTRL + Win + Alt + PgDn = Hang Up; CTRL + Win + Alt + End = Ignore; CTRL + Win + Alt + Up Arrow = Focus Skype; CTRL + Win + Alt + M = Mute Mic. Maybe it seems complicated on the first hand, but, I use this in the way to "play" the CTRL + Win + Alt "chord" with the left hand and type the forth key in shortcut with the right hand. It's not so good for the laptop users because of the FN key usually placed between left CTRL and Windows key, but on the desktop keyboards this works just fine. ______________________ Regards G MSN: zarakijel at gmail.com http://zarakijel.4shared.com ----- Original Message ----- From: "jim grimsby Jr." <[email protected]> To: "'a list for discussing skype and its use with screen access software.'" <skypeenglish at emissives.com> Sent: Wednesday, October 01, 2008 12:02 AM Subject: Re: [Skypeenglish] Running skype from the system tray:: > Considering the fact everyone is providing hot keys I will provide the > list > I use. > Shift+windows+enter focus skype. > Shift+windos+numpad pluss answer call. > Shift+windows+numpad dash hangup/reject call. > Shift+windows numpad star ignore call. > Shift+windows numpad slash > Mute microphone. > Control windows f3 find skype contact. > Also have a auto hot key script that closes skype control windows f4 and a > script that starts skype control windows s. > Also the window eyes hot keys have been moved to the numpad as well.
