Maya: Remap spacebar to playback toggle (tap) hotbox (hold)

adam crockett

Maya's normal spacebar function:

• tap: toggle between single and multiple panels
• hold: hotbox 

My desired spacebar function:

• tap: toggle animation playback
• hold: hotbox 

I've been experimenting with the hotkey editor, and googling answers, but I just can't figure out how to set up the spacebar like this. 

Anyone know how to set that up? 

Thanks,
Adam

It is quite possible, but involves some hardcore python coding. Not with standard tools, unfortunately.

Might be easier to do with AutoHotKey?
