How to record the keyboard shortcuts in Windows

I'm capturing function for a computer course keys by creating a simulation and assessment. I can't simulate arrow keys and the keys like F5. It does not work when I try using IE but seems to work in Firefox. Haven't tried Chrome.

Advice please? Thanks in advance!

Trying to simulate the use of keyboard shortcuts, including function keys, is almost always an exercise in futility.  Your end user's web browser gets dibs on the F keys as well as any other key combination that sometimes you want to reserve for its own use.  No matter what you do, you cannot override it with what you do in the Captivate content.

  • Satellite P750-13F - how to activate the keyboard backlit on Windows 8

    Hello!

    Today, I installed Windows 8 premium on my P750-13F, which features a backlit keyboard. In order to upgrade to Windows 8 I had to uninstall certain Toshiba drivers and other programs.

    Now, I have fully functional Windows 8, but I don't know how to access the functions of FN key (screen brightness, wifi power button, volume up/down).

    Now that the FN key is innoperative function that I miss the most is that for illumination of the keyboard, because I can still do everything else by other methods (I mean volume up/down, brightness etc) but I don't know how to illuminate the keyboard now.

    I tried to install the Toshiba hardware configuration utility, but it will not install with Windows 8. I like so much if the FN key remains innoperative (although that would be nice if it would not) but what I really want to be able to change the lighting of the keypad.

    I'll be very grateful for any ideas.

    Up to Toshiba doesn t offer Win8 tools and utility there is nothing you can do about it. I hope that will happen very soon.
    So please be patient until the stuff of Win8 will be offered for download.

    I have a client who really wanted XP loaded on this Satellite L300D-01N (PSLC8C-01N019), and I have all the drivers are working on it... the only thing that does not work are the shortcut keyboard/function keys. Of course, there is no XP drivers for this particular unit on the Toshiba site.

    Anyone out there had any chance to get the keyboard shortcuts to work for this model?
    Thanks in advance!

    The European driver Toshiba page provides for Satellite L300D PSLC8E series XP drivers.

    Check if the drivers for this series runs on your laptop.

  • How to configure the keyboard shortcuts App for submenu items?

    Hi-

    I'm trying to define keyboard shortcuts for Pro Tools. I am facing a problem, however. I want to put a shortcut for the menu item

    View-> view-> Inserts A-E Edit window

    in the keyboard preferences window, so I've created a shortcut to the App to «inserts A - E» The problem is that there are other elements of submenu in Pro Tools with the same name, for example

    View-> Mix window views-> Inserts A-E

    Track-> Bypass inserts-> Inserts A - E

    and it is the latter who eventually be triggered by the shortcut. In fact the shortcut appears in the three places during the navigation in the menus; but it only triggers the item "bypass".

    In the keyboard preferences pane, is it possible to specify which menu a submenu item resides in?

    I'm on El Capitan 10.11.2, ProTools 11.3.1.

    Thanks in advance

    ~ peter in istanbul

    It is not possible that you are trying. Shortcuts can handle only a single menu command name. The command being the last point. Other menus of the parent are not considered.

  • How to make the keyboard shortcut to toggle 'let web page specify fonts' - if I can force my specified police power quickly.

    I would like to have a keyboard shortcut, or maybe an icon on the toolbar to quickly toggle the option "allow the web page to specify fonts."
    [Because most of the web pages may be allowed to specify their own fonts, but some are unreadable for me, then I want to force a specific font by default soon.]

    I also have a button on the toolbar of the PrefBar extension.

  • How to change the keyboard shortcuts?

    Problem:

    Keyboard shortcuts as increase and decrease brush size by Cmd + [and command +] (and many others) only works on English American keyboards. The hooks on the Swiss German keyboard are accessible by Alt + 5 for [Alt + 6].

    Cmd + Alt and Alt + Cmd + 5 and 6 do not work as expected.

    On the keyboard of the SG are at the position where you will find on the US keyboard [and] the letters o on the [position and a on the] position.

    (a) where I can change this , the Swiss German, keyboard Cmd + ö, u and Cmd are used as decrease or increase in the size of the brush?

    (b) Solution for future releases:

    • Adobe developers should get rid of verification of the special functions in ASCII code. Isn't is no longer using the ASCII code for special functions.
    • It is for each key on the keyboard as a code Scan, which is independent of the language, region, and keyboard settings.
    • The problem is, that the world, the community of developers is to use keyboards french and put on the page, so they have unfortunately never aware this problem.

    If you check special functions by scan code instead of the ASCII code, this problem will no longer exist. For example, the analysis codes for Cmd + o - US keyboard is Cmd + [-is ALWAYS the same, independent of the keyboard settings or any other language or country.]

    Scan the code = return code independent of the keyboard, it's a kind of 'coordination' of the button pressed

    ASCII or Unicode = depends on keyboard, character on the "xy" scan code position key is returned and it's different for each keyboard layout.

    Please pass on to the developers.

    Cheers & CU,.

    You can create your own shortcuts under Edition > hotkeys (probably in the menu of Photoshop on Mac).

    I have a Norwegian keyboard and have created several shortcuts with letters æ, o, a.

    Shortcuts to increase/decrease brush size is under shortcuts for tools.

  • How to change the keyboard shortcut to navigate through the tabs open in PS and AI CC 2014

    I'd love to put my own keyboard shortcuts to navigate through tabs open in PS and AI 2014 on OS X. I found out that this can be done with ctrl + tab to the PS, but I couldn't manage to make suggestions to the work of the forum of the AI. As said, I would like to define a 'standard' shortcut more like alt + cmd + arrow key at the same time of applications. If this shouldn't be possible, does anyone know a shortcut in AI CC 2014?

    Thank you very much!

    Amadeus

    In Illustrator, in my view, you can set these shortcuts in Edit > keyboard shortcuts > Menu commands > funny

    (illustrator can be also command-F6)

    Fact command + ~ (tilde key) work for you in photoshop and illustrator?

    I don't think you want to use alt + cmd + arrow key since it's repositioning/moving objects

  • How to make the keyboard shortcut for uppercase text work?

    I assigned a keyboard shortcut (command + up arrow) and it did not work. I put it by default and text.

    I'm something wrong choice in the area of keyboard shortcut? What should be selected as the set? (by default, the page creator, quark) What should be the context ? (Warning, by default, tables, xml, text selection)


    -Upper case

    No problem here.

    'Games' are sets of predefined shortcuts, and you cannot modify them. Regarding the 'context', "Default" use your new shortcut anywhere, while 'Text', it will only work with a text cursor/selection. 'Table' there only work inside tables, 'XML' only in the XML Structure pane, etc. The obvious choice here is "text".

    If you want to add your own shortcuts, you must (a) register your game under a new name, because you cannot change the default sets and (b) ensure that what assets when you OK from the dialog box.

  • How to configure the keyboard shortcut to open the calculator of Windows 7?

    Just bought a new computer with Windows 7 and the new keyboard doesn't have a button above to open the calculator.  I find that I really really really miss having this button.  I have a white button on the top of the keypad that seems to do nothing and I wonder if I can program it to open the calculator.  Of course, I sent a technical support of the bridge and haven't heard anything after 4 days.

    You should be able to leave this empty.  Try clicking in the box and back to make sure it is completely empty.

    I set mine to Ctr-Alt-C, and it worked, but when I tried to click on Apply it prompted me administrator rights.

  • How to install the keyboard shortcut FN for volume, BRIGHTNESS etc. ?

    Hello

    I installed WinXP pure (no recovery by Toshiba) yesterday. Everything works fine, but I'm not able to put in place the FN key. The only combination that works is FN + F5, but nothing else. I can't change brightness FN + F6/F7 or MUTE by FN + ESC etc.
    Can you help me what I have to install?

    And second guestion - what do I have to install for graphic symbols as the volume level? Volume knob works but nothing appers on screen.

    Thank you very much.

    Hello

    I think that many people would be able to help you but without details of your laptop, it of very difficult to tell which driver might help you

    However, the Toshiba driver page should provide all the necessary drivers and utilities.
    If you want to use all the features of the laptop, you must install all the drivers available.

  • How to configure keyboard shortcuts in Windows Media Center?

    Hi all

    I do know that if this is possible, I wanted to be able to change the keyboard shortcuts used in Windows Media Center.
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-AU/Windows-Vista/Windows-Media-Center-keyboard-shortcuts
    For example, to use the "ESC" key to "Go back to the previous screen" (currently 'return BACK').

    I could not find how to do this on the forum. The reasoning behind it, is that I use my cell phone as a Bluetooth remote, and current controls, I, has a 'ESC' key, but none touch "BACK".

    Thanks in advance,
    Nick
