Nothing fundamental but this would simplify my life in Usine. :)
If there is such a shortcut to open the patch editor, i don't seem to find it.:)

You can double-click the interface background to open the patch, or right-click the background and choose Open Patch from the pop-up menu. A handy feature - especially when using sub-patches - is right-clicking an interface element like a fader or a switch and use Find in Patch.

Since you can get the pop-ups using the special Windows key to the right of the spacebar and AltGr (the menu key? I don't remember what it's called) and the pop-up options have shortcut keys, you can do this without the mouse, but in my opinion it's not very practical. You would need to grab the mouse to do anything useful within the patch anyway.

Yes that's not very practical... what would work for me : a button in the dashboard to open the patch editing window of whatever track or subpatch is active, the button would then be assignable to whatever shortcut via the key learn function.
I'm tired of the double clicking. :D

I'll try to think about it.
but we have to be careful to not transform the actual dashboard into a boeing dashboard...

Yes i understand, perhaps an option in the menus is better.
Thank you for looking into it, although it's not the most essential thing.
