AZERTY remapping in the official viewer

[Walker Moore]

I logged in for the first time in seven years, I no longer have access to a QWERTY keyboard, and I'm wondering what the usual strategy is for remapping keys for an AZERTY keyboard.

W to Z, and A to Q are the most important remappings (ZQSD are used for movement, not WASD), but I hit upon a problem when trying to include the modifiers for "Camera Pan Up".

The default is: Ctrl + Alt + Maj + W

When I try to change it to Ctrl + Alt + Maj + Z, I get this message:

"Ctrl + Alt + Maj + Z is reserved by menu"

Is there any way to resolve this which allows me to use Ctrl + Alt + Maj + Z?

Also, is there a config file I can backup which will allow me to restore bindings should I accidentally nuke them?

https://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Keyboard_mapping Firestorm had an AZERTY flip buildt in, here is the text of the old keys_azerty.xml file (not sure if still valid):

Ooopsie accidentally posted my ESDF remap, fixed now

Thank you!

I just played around with this a little, and while it didn't solve the Ctrl + Alt + Maj + W problem, it's still very useful in other respects and now I know exactly how to backup the bindings.  I really appreciate your help, Fionalein. 👍
