Shortkey for enable / disable survey

[tammojan]

Is it possible to toggle showing the latest used survey with some shortkey? I.e. when I press H, a hydrogen sky appears, and when I press H again, I'm back to 'normal' stellarium without any survey.

The Guide answers this on page 16, and you can assign your own hotkeys (section 4.7.1).

Default shortcut for toggle HiPS is Ctrl+Alt+D, but you may change it in Shortcut Editor (Details in Stellarium User Guide).

Thanks for your replies. Page 16 indeed mentions the HiPS-button; I just found out that I have to enable it through Control Panel / Extras. Pressing the button does exactly what I want; unfortunately the shortkey does not work. Also manually setting a different shortcut key, pressing the key does not toggle HiPS.

Have you enabled a survey in the first place?
The default hotkey works on my Windows systems with German keyboard layout. Your mileage may vary.

Apparently my mileage varies, the shortkey does not work. Using it with Stellarium 0.18.1, macos, US International keyboard layout. Probably because Cmd-Option-D gets caught by the system to toggle the Dock. Changing it to Cmd-Option-P does work.
