Maya shortcut for toggling 'preserve uv's'

MikeF

Is anyone aware of a keyboard shortcut for toggling the preseve uv's option of move, rotate and scale tools?
My current workflow swaps between modes quite frequently, would be nice to not have to do it all by mouse every time, thanks!

It is possible to make custom hotkeys in the hotkey editor. The top comment here gives instructions how to:

The Runtime Command Editor is on the right side panel in the hotkey editor: 

echo the command only gives you true or false so you have to add the toggling bit. I don't know MEL but chatgpt has been helpful enough for short bits of that in the past.

Thanks AlexJ, forgot that echo all wasnt on by default so wasnt getting the command i needed. And of course there's a thread exactly for this already once i captured it
