The new capture command line options have been added to XnView, you can use them with the HotkeyP to make screenshot(s) with a single click - keyboard shortcut, mouse shortcut, gamepad, or even remote control.
Small guide:
1. Go to HotkeyP menu > Hotkey > and select "Create new"
2. Use any keyboard/mouse shortcut as a Hot Key
3. Command - it's the same for all options, it's a path to xnview.exe, by default:
C:\Program Files\XnView\xnview.exe
4. Parameters - few examples:
-capture=window
-capture=desktop
-capture=window,c:\file.ext
-capture=desktop,c:\file.ext
-capture=window,c:\file#.ext
-capture=desktop,c:\file_###.ext
-capture=window,d:\screenshot$.ext
-capture=desktop,d:\screenshot_$.ext
# is a number index - #=1, 2, 3..., ###=001, 002, 003...
$ is a date and time - 08132007_214818
Path and file name is customizable. Screenshot is created, saved and then xnview exits. Extension is taken from Capture setup dialog.

From the HotkeyP Help...
Volume, Volume +, Volume -
This command sets or increases or decreases audio volume. The first parameter is percent (an integer from 0 to 100). The second parameter is an audio line name (Mixer, Wave, MIDI, CD Audio, Line In, Microphone, Bass, Treble, ...). Actual names depend on your sound card and you can see them in the Volume Control application in Windows accessories. The Mixer is synonym for the Master out. The "Show these audio lines:" edit box in the options dialog box contains comma-separated audio line names that are displayed every time this hotkey is pressed.
Example for Wave - volume + (5%)
Command: Volume +
Parameters: 5 Wave

I will probably just reinstall, but for some reason my I cant see my hotkeys or edit them in the main program. I have three shortcuts. I had them saved too (test.htk file). Weird thing is that my shortcuts still work, but I cant edit them or view them in any way.
Ever had this problem?
Question: How does the "Save desktop icons" and "Restore" work? I change resolutions sometimes and have 40 icons. So you would use the "Save desktop icons" bind only once and hit your restore button anytime? What if some icons are missing since your last save?

No, strange. I'm using HotkeyP almost two years, I have three hundred shortcuts and it works perfect.And 1 wrote:I will probably just reinstall, but for some reason my I cant see my hotkeys or edit them in the main program.

Could you describe the problem a little bit more please? What OS are you using? What HotkeyP version? There is a new feature - categories in the new version, have you tried to switch categories - try the first "all". Have you tried to re-load the htk file?
If possible send / upload the htk file, or/and screenshot of the main HotkeyP window. Do not use rapid share please, you can use http://www.zshare.net/ .
Only position of icons is saved - in the registry. I'm using a special Multi command - to Save desktop icons, Clear recent documents, change volume, change wallpaper and Shutdown - so I just use a single shortcut and all this is done in a moment. I use this Multicommand every day, so the positions of the icons are always updated and I can restote positions anytime by a shortcut or menu... I use just one (native) resolution, but somtimes it's changed, when I restore the resolution and use "restore" icons position is restored correctly.And 1 wrote:Question: How does the "Save desktop icons" and "Restore" work?

I'm using 4.4. And yes I tried all those things before I posted more than once. And even restarted my Windows XP SP2 OS to try again, and again. I thought my hardware is stable (original install date: 12/05 
).
I fixed it. I just went to File > Clear settings. Then reloaded my htk file.
So could you write me a guide for the 'save/restore desktop icons'? What goes under Parameters and Working Directory? Does "C:\WINDOWS\explorer.exe" go under working directory?
EDIT: I downloaded this program layout.zip. Very small 5kb folder that comes with a DLL file and a REG file. It simply adds "Save/Restore Desktop Items" when you right-click your recycle bin. Works great. Put the DLL in your \windows\system32 folder. I'd still prefer to do it with hotkeyP.

Good to hear you solved the problem.
If you want just to create a shortcut to save - and another to restore the icons positions, then use these Commands:
Save desktop icons
Restore desktop icons
Nothing else is needed, just select a custom hotkey / keyboard shortcut for both.
As I said, I'm using Multi command, so the icons positions are saved everytime I turn off the computer, then I can restore them anytime.
You can tick the checkbox for "Add to the systray icon menu" if you don't like shortcuts. It's possible to create a desktop shortcuts(s) too.

Hello Dreamer!
I've liked your program, but how do you uninstall it? I've already deleted the saved hotkeys file, but as there is no installation, I cannot find a deinstallation, and the hotkeys are still working (some but not all, for example wind+ D works to show desktop but not win+M to turn off monitor).
