KeyCue 8.0

Ergonis has released KeyCue 8.0, a major new version of the keyboard shortcut utility that takes the app beyond being a menu shortcut viewer. Version 8.0 brings a flexible new way to define a wide variety of triggers to perform different actions, such as displaying the newly added collection of frequently used URLs, opening the KeyCue settings window, and more. The release also includes definable actions for right-clicking the menu bar icon, ensures that mouse movement no longer cancels the display, shows macros for all active macro tools (such as Keyboard Maestro, QuicKeys, and iKey), enables you to increase the height of the Settings window to show more items in the trigger and custom lists, and improves compatibility with a number of apps, including Mail, Mailplane, Logic Pro, and Papyrus Autor.

If you purchased a KeyCue 7 license on or after 1 March 2015, you can upgrade to KeyCue 8.0 for free. For purchases made before that date, you can upgrade to the new version for €9.99 for a single user license or €14.99 for a family pack license. (€19.99 new with a 25 percent discount for TidBITS members, free update, 5.1 MB, release notes, 10.6+)
