Hog4 PC Pig button

Hello Hog Community, :hogsign:

I am Running the Hog4 PC on my Laptop with a external 19" Touchscreen, and I'm trying to use the Pig Button but since I cant have 2 mouse pointers I wont allow me to enable it for a command.

The Manual says Ctrl on the keyboard can replace the Hog Button.. But I can seem to get it to work.

Anyone have a solution to this issue?

I am new to the Hog 4 but I could not get it to work either on the Hog 3 so maybe my Computer hates me... :Eyecrazy:

Hopefully someone can help me out.

Yours,
Kent

To use keyboard shortcuts, Hog needs to be in MAP mode. You can toggle between Abc and MAP mode by pressing the Pause button on your keyboard.

If I recall...
Hold SHIFT when you mouse click the PIG Button.

Continuing to hold SHIFT keeps the PIG button down so you can then use the mouse for the second select.

Thank YOU SO MUCH Chris

Shift Key works perfect, wish this helpful information was in the Hog User Manual... :rtfm:

Thank you everyone for the quick responds, I miss a full size console for these smaller shows.

Thank you again for saving my bacon.

If in MAP mode Ctrl does work as a "PIG" key.
Holding down the Ctrl button and hitting release will release all cues.

If order for Keyboard shortcuts to work you must be in "MAP" mode.

Section 27 of the Manual list all the Keyboard shortcuts and the keyboard key combinations needed.
