Actions' function key reminder in PS7

I have recorded quite a few actions in PS 7 but only recently started making a note of what keyboard shortcuts call what action. As a result, quite a few of the available function keys are 'taken' but I don't know what they do and have so far not managed to find out. Failing all else I can delete the whole lot and start again, making better notes. But I'd rather not. So;
Q: how can I see all the function keys' actions?
Thanks for any help
ps sorry about the rubbish user name but after too many attempts resulting in user-name-unavailable type messages I lost patience!  

When you set the Actions Panel to Button Mode are the Shortcuts being displayed?

  • Photoshop actions function keys script

    I work with a lot actions organized in multiple action folders. Is it possible to create a Photoshop CC script that will remove every function key shortcuts from the entire Photshop CC Action panel folders?

    Give me the prize for answering my own question. Seems there is a "default" setting to "Use all F1, F2, etc. keys as standard function keys." OK, so I guess I want them to be non-standard. Now it works.
    Mac Help says "Most function keys on your portable computer serve as specific control keys, such as volume and brightness controls" and "applications may also assign alternate functions to those keys." In fact, the keys by themselves with the default preferences do not serve as volume and brightness controls. Only by using a special option (fn key) do they fulfill the default markings on the keycaps. It seems Apple should not have the check mark to disable the one-press function of these keys. It should be a special selection to disable that and thus require pressing fn also. Any application such as Exposé should give a message at first launch that some special features depend on checking this in System PReferences. It is far better to leave the f-ing keys alone to work as they are marked by default.
    Just a heads-up for anyone with this same puzzle. Now I'm off to the feedback page.

  • Function key actions not working

    I’m using Illustrator CC (v. 17.1.0) on an iMac. For ages, I’ve had actions set up. I have function key strokes attached to those actions. Just recently, they stopped working the way I want them to. For example, I have an action where I select text. The action changes the size of the text, and the color. Now, I get the error “The object 'Set color' is not currently available.”
    Another example is an action where I center three items along a horizontal line and group them. When I run that action now, I get the message, “The object ‘Alignment’ is not currently available.”
    When I recreate the actions (and then the function keystrokes) it works fine. Same exact steps. But I have to recreate my actions/assign function keys literally ever time I re-open illustrator. This is a huge pain. I’ve noticed the actions I have set up that DON’T have keystrokes work fine. So somehow it’s tied to the keystrokes, I think. How can I fix this, as I LOVE having the function key strokes!

    Hi Keany,
    I already had found that option because I would like to use directly the standard F1/F12 functions and not the special functions (as default setting by Toshiba). When I want to change for example brightness I now press Fn+ F2 (brightness down) or Fn + F3 (brightness up).
    The Fn+ F12 key nicely toggles the WiFi on or Off. I now understand that the way Toshiba displays this is not the same as with Windows 7?
    However I still have difficulties on how to switch on/off Bluetooth, that in my memory was done using the same functionkey (+Fn) ? I can't get it on.
    I there someone who can tell me? At the moment I only see 2 states when toggling with Fn+ F12, WiFi on or WiFi off.

  • How do I make pressing a function key do an action?

    When the user presses F5, I want to do an action. If possible, I'd like to avoid Javascript.
    Is there some way to declare to the form that I want an arbitrary function key or key-sequence to do an action?
    Thanks,

    If you're asking about Pages for iOS (this forum is for iWork for iOS), I don't see an option to make part of an image transparent.
    If you're asking about Pages for your Mac, you can use the instant alpha tool to make the background transparent. There is a separate forum for Pages on the Mac here.

  • Cant use function keys under actions. CS4, intel 2 x 2,8 quad

    We have just migrated from CS2 to CS4, and to new computers. I now cant use my function keys (F1 etc) with my actions. Any clues anyone?

    On your new computer, open the System Preferences>Keyboard&Mouse. Make sure the box for Use Function keys as normal is checked.

  • How to use the Function keys as function keys instead of action keys?

    When I press F1 or any of the other F keys it does what the symbol says on the key (volume/skip track etc).
    How do I actually use the F keys and not the symbols?

    Hi again John,
    ...is there a way to switch that around so I use the "fn" key for sound etc?
    Do the following:
    1. Fire up System Preferences
    2. Select Keyboard & Mouse
    3. Select the Keyboard tab.
    4. Tick the "Use all F1, F2, etc. keys as standard function keys" box.
    That's it. You have now reversed the default use of the function keys. If you need to increase/decrease sound, brightness etc then press 'fn' plus the appropriate function key.

  • Satellite P870-335 - Function key actions not visible

    Hi
    I have a P870-335 in which I placed a SSD disk and installed Windows 8 Pro (now 8.1) and was able to get most devices working with the drivers that I found by the Toshiba autodetect program.
    However one of the items still missing is that I can not see/control the functions that are on the Function keys, (like swichting Bluetooth/Wireless). I know from my previous Toshiba laptop that at the moment I press the Fn key I see a OSD that show me the options and the status of them.
    I cant find which software I have to install in order to restore this functionality. Somebody got a hint/link for me?
    Assume that this software is also available for Windows 8(.1) Pro?
    Thanks in advance, Herbiek.

  • How can I use Automator to toggle the Function Keys?

    I am trying to create a Automated process to toggle the Function Keys on my keyboard. This is because I use several programs, including After Effects, which use the F1-12 keys, but when I am not using that program I commonly use the Apple-defined shortcuts on the keyboard. I have a full-sized keyboard, hence no Fn key. So that's out right away – I've read several comments on this topic where people suggested that this is the ONLY option. I refuse to beleive that.
    Automator contains a "Watch Me Do" feature, which I have tried to use to record this process. Problem is, it never clicks the right object. If I record clicking the dock, the magnification (I suspect) throws off the virtual-controlled mouse and picks the wrong object. If I record the Apple Menu route, it gets it about 1/2 the time.
    I think what I'm really looking for is a console command I can feed into the Terminal which toggles the keys. It seems to be that this HAS to be an option, even if it is more than one line of commands. I believe if I can feed this process into Automator, it would work.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks in advance, Mac Geniuses!

    iKey lets you define function keys per application. You seem to want to turn on & off the defined apple keys.  Not sure if these keyboard re-mappers will do the trick.
    Here is my other most favored application. Of course, I haven't checked these out in newer OS's. I'm a Tiger man myself.
    iKey is a front end program that simulates typing and mouse movements. I use iKey to remap the Function keys.
    "iKey is an automation utility, a program that creates shortcuts to accomplish repetitive tasks. In essence, an iKey shortcut is a little program in its own right, but you don't need to know the first thing about programming to create an iKey shortcut. All you have to do is put together three necessary parts of a shortcut: One or more commands that give the shortcut its functionality, a context in which it runs, and a launcher that defines how the shortcut is activated."

    iKey  has a little more function then the previous free version called youpi key. For many years, I used youpi key before switching to iKey.  It works fairly well for me in MAC OS 10.4 although not officially supported.  The youpi key download is hard to find & no longer here.
    http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/11485&vid=75326
    ( Send me a message for a copy of youpi  key. )
    *Examples:*
    I have the common programs that I use assigned to function keys. I have F4 assigned to Firefox. When I want to start FireFox, I press F4. When I want to switch to firefox, I press F4! Starting & switching to an application in Mac OS are the same thing in Mac OS.
    Here is an example of to assign volumn control to a function key.

    Here is my script for listing my application folder. I have it assigned to function-key 6.
    tell application "Finder"
       open folder "Applications" of startup disk
       select Finder window 1
       set bounds of Finder window 1 to {-3, 44, 691, 545}
       --set position of Finder window 1 to {33, 44}
       set position of Finder window 1 to {60, 45}
       activate
    end tell
    The second portion of this script was generated in the script editor record mode. After I recorded the script and did some editing, I copy the script to ikey/youpi key.

  • How can I use the function keys in a GUI with swing?

  • How do you get the Apple Wireless Keyboard to accept function keys?

    I use the Apple Wireless Keyboard with my iPad2 and I use the VPN to connect to my work-related software which requires that I use some of the function keys as actual F1, F2, F3,...etc.  When I hit F2, the iPad2 responds with the Screen Brighter action.  How do I get the keyboard input to just be F2?  Thanks!

    Thanks. But I tried that and nothing happens.  I've looked though all the System Preferences sections and can't find anything on this.

  • HP Pavilion tx2500z - Default Function Keys not working

    I have a HP Pavilion tx2500z (model: KD436AV) laptop with Windows 7 64 bit OS installed. Since last few months, I am not able to use default function keys (F1, F2...F12) and other keys at the top row of the keyboard, including Pg Up, Pg Down, Home, End, Insert, Delete. However, all the Action Keys available on these keys are working without pressing Fn Key (e.g. Sleep, Brightness, num lock etc). I get same Action Key behaviour even after pressing Fn Key.
    It looks like, somehow system is locked in action key mode and I am not able to come out of it. I tried to upgrade Bios (currently on latest F.0F version) and also tried to disable the Action Key mode in BIOS, but Action Key mode is not available in BIOS of this computer. Even to enter BIOS, I faced problem because F10 key was not working to enter BIOS setup. I had to connect external keyboard to enter BIOS.
    I am disperately looking for help to come out of this situation. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hello,
    An idea for you would be to test the keyboard in a different enviroment ro see if it's hardware or not.
    We can check the keys by booting into the recovery partition and opening a command prompt.
    Power down notebook
    Press power button then tap F11 until the screen says recovery at the bottom left or says Windows is Loading files. If it shows a different menu on your screen you may have press it too late or continues to load Windows you may have an issue w/ the partition.
    Next when it loads into the menu choose an option so the program is slected. I select "System Recovery" then at the next menu press FN+SHIFT+D
    At the commpand prompt window that pops up test the keys w/ issues.
    I am an HP employee.
