How to switch to broadcast only to one window?.

I know I can switch on and off the broadcasting altogether, but is it possible to have a different hotkey to only broadcast to one specific window?.

I'm following this guide: http://isboxer.com/wiki/HOWTO:Broadcast ... of_windows

However I cant see any " new repeatar target action" option, maybe the UI changed.

In any case, Im not sure thats why I want, I just want to do something like pressing ctrl + shit + T and make it so my current window broadcasts to a specific one.

You need a Repeater Target Action to set a New Repeater Target.

It sounds like the Hold To Control mapped keys in the Base Hotkeys might just do what you want.

If you want the broadcast to affect both your main and your chosen target slot, you will probably want to untick the "Block buttons from originating Window"

I want to switch to a mode where I indefinitely broadcast to a chosen window, without needing to press a key.

Feel free to copy or just modify the current Hold to Control mapped keys, and change the setting so it works for a toggle (personally I'd copy them so it's not overwritten by a later run through the Wizard).
You can do this by changing the "Execute a Step when the hotkey" option, and moving it from "pressed OR released" to either the "pressed" or "released" options

Erm… I’m sorry to be a necromancies and cast raise dead here, but…

I can’t seem to find this Actions menu?

I am just looking to broadcast to 2 windows out of 5-7 depending on my mood. Is there any simple easy way to accomplish this? I don’t want to hold a key in my situation. I need to be able to move 2 without putting the others at risk of running out of town or clicking on something lol
