I'm looking into creating an extension, but I need my functionality to be keyboard accessible. Is there a way to do this? Currently, I just create a menu item, but this new menu doesn't appear in the command list in the Keyboard Shortcuts option page.
Also, the SDK download is out-of-date. It contains headers with PN_EXT_IFACE_VERSION = 8, but the current app is at version 9. I worked around this by directly downloading the headers from the source.

Thanks, I'd forgotten to update the SDK in a while and I'll get on that.
The current version doesn't support keyboard shortcuts for menu items, but it's on my list to do soon. In the mean time you can use a trigger letter, something like "My &Command" and you can then use the command with Alt-E, C.
The main thing I have to work out is how best to identify extension commands across runs - is the title of the command enough (perhaps name and plugin name?) or should I add some kind of unique identifier like a GUID.

I should also add that version 9 of the interface is for the in-development version of PN - 2.1. Extensions built against that won't work with currently shipping PN.
The 2.0.10 files can all be found here:
