Use the Shortcut Wizard to quickly and intuitively set up a shortcut.
Generally, when you want to modify the configuration of the shortcut, this Wizard will appear. The option that this Wizard can be modified is shown in the table above. The options marked as "Advanced" are displayed only when the "Advanced Settings" are expanded.
When modifying the preset shortcuts, some options are not allowed to be changed, such as its name and target, but its icons and large icons and banners can still be modified.
The purpose of the shortcut grouping is to be able to show or hide multiple shortcuts at one time. Its essence is Skin Group, which can be shown or hidden through the Rainmeter Bang command.
Just like the "Folder" icon on the phone, click to show or hide multiple shortcuts in the same group.

- Put multiple shortcuts into a group in the right place. It is best to put them next to the Shortcut Group Drawer that belongs to the same group, but DON'T OVERLAP with it.
- Check the settings of these shortcuts to see if they belong to ONE GROUP. At this time, their "Auto-Hide" function can be enabled.
- When these shortcuts are hidden, click (once or twice) the Shortcut Group Drawer to observe whether they will be shown or hidden together.
Tip
If a shortcut is always hidden due to the configuration error, you can go to "Quanto Flx Manager", go to "Quanto Flx Shortcut" -> "Settings", and click "Show up all shortcuts immediately".
Enable the "Auto-Hide" function and then match the Shortcut Group Drawer, which can make these shortcuts more like a group of shortcuts in behavior. This makes these shortcuts not appear directly on the desktop when starting Rainmeter, but to be displayed through the corresponding Shortcut Group Drawer.
