"Reinsert floppy" key/button
Some games (eg. Pirates and IIRC Faery Tale Adventure), when loading a saved game wait for a DISKINSERTED message, even when the correct disk is already in the drive. So you have to eject the disk (F12, Floppies tab, Eject button, OK button), wait a couple of seconds, then reinsert the disk (F12, DF0: "..." button, choose from filerequester again, OK button); this is rather laborious.
It would be better if there was a single key or button (per floppy drive) which would send a DISKEJECTED message, wait the minimum necessary delay, and then send a DISKINSERTED message for the same disk. Possibly the DISKINSERTED message is the only important one for most games, so it might be possible to omit the eject & wait. Last edited by Minuous; 28 December 2012 at 02:45. |

Load the disks in diskswapper.
Select the input tab, configuration#1, and map "Next Slot in diskswapper" and "Insert disk in current diskswapper slot in DF0:" to keyboard keys. edit: altered info Last edited by Arnie; 28 December 2012 at 11:19. |

I can add Input event for "re-insert disk in drivex" but I am not sure if it is useful enough to make it default shortcut..

How about "mount the contents of a folder into diskswapper" instead of adding line by line?
eg. Workbench 3.1 folder, add 6 disks into diskswapper by choosing a folder or from first disk choice, add the rest. |
