Optimizing Shortcuts for FastRawViewer
For whatever reason the FastRawViewer decided to use a combination of CTRL and the number from the Numpad for the most often used activities: rate or rotate a picture.
That's more complex than necessary and impacts productivity and efficiency. I remap to the same numbers without CTRL: File → Customize → Keyboard Shortcuts → Rotate: Remove CTRL → XMP Rating Remove CTRL
Additionally I use the rating in the opposite order: 1 stars = best shots 5 stars = garbage .. because it's faster to click the Numpad 1 while scrolling with arrows through the photos: from right arrow to Numpad 1 my finger needs to move only 2cm with less risk to hit the keys around 5 (mainly 4, 1, 2).
