Leafar:

One question, for you or anyone who can help. I want to see the 3d manipulator only when I am pressing “Alt + OSKey” with the 3 options enabled (rotate, scale and grab) and when I release this shortcut the manipulator disappear but not when I am working.

Don´t know if I am explaining myself properly but if I want to press Ctrl to activate snap options I want to have the manipulator on screen but when the job is done, the manipulator is automatically off.

No, afaik, we can’t use modifier keys (Ctrl, Shift, Alt, OSkey) as a regular hotkey. Ctrl key (snap option) is used as a part of modal operators (translate, rotate, scale, etc).
