Soundboard 1.2.1

Soundboard v1.2.1

Soundboard v1.2.1 makes modifier keys optional for global hotkeys.

Highlights

• Assign a single supported key such as F1, a letter, a number, or a numpad
  key without holding Ctrl, Alt, Shift, or Win.
• Existing combinations such as Shift + F1 continue to work unchanged.
• The capture dialog now says "Press any key or key combination" and still
  rejects modifier-only input.
• Duplicate assignments and hotkeys reserved by Windows or another
  application continue to show a clear error.

Compatibility

Existing libraries and settings remain compatible without a schema change.
Previously saved hotkey combinations retain their bindings and display text.
Global hotkeys continue to use Windows RegisterHotKey; Soundboard does not
use keyboard hooks, raw input, polling, keylogging, or simulated keystrokes.

Installation options

• Soundboard-Setup-v1.2.1-win-x64.exe is the per-user installer. Its normal
  destination is %LOCALAPPDATA%\Programs\Soundboard.
• Soundboard-v1.2.1-win-x64-portable.zip is the self-contained portable
  release.

Both options preserve user settings, the sound library, hotkeys, and managed
audio under %LOCALAPPDATA%\Soundboard.

Validation

Automated coverage verifies bare F1 creation, display, persistence across a
restart, registration flags, duplicate rejection, modifier-only rejection,
Shift + F1 compatibility, and existing saved combinations. A physical global
keypress was not simulated or claimed as part of automated validation.
