Invoking Keyboard Maestro “Prompt for User Input” Buttons Other Than OK via the Keyboard

Often times I have to do repetitive tasks which involve answering to a prompt. The only button that's hard-wired to a keyboard key is the OK button. How can I invoke other buttons without reaching for the mouse?

Ideally, pressing the 1st letter of the button name would activate them.

I suspect this is not possible in KM. If so, are there any workarounds?

Also, if not supported, would the author consider implementing?

Thanks.

Hey @project_guru,

Take a look at the “Optional Buttons Can be Assigned Shortcut Keys” section of the “Prompt For User Input” wiki page:

Incidentally, the outlined button can be clicked with the space key in macOS dialogs

Hey Vincent,

This is only true IF you have the following setting turned [ON]:

System Preferences > Keyboard > Shortcuts > Keyboard > Change the way Tab moves focus

You're totally right. Thanks Chris, I'd forgotten it's not always enabled
