Applying keyboard shortcuts to Change Case Commands?

Could someone check to see if they can do this as I can't do it with either CS5 or CS5.5.
Open the keyboard shortcuts dialog box and under the Type menu, apply a keyboard command to Change Case>Title Case. (I used Control-T)
At first, on my machine, the command was listed, but didn't apply to the selected text. Manually applying the command from the menu did work.
Later, I couldn't get the shortcut to appear at all. I've rebuilt the preferences twice.
Could someone see if they can do this. Then I'll know it's something on my machine.

Is it perhaps the known "CS5 plugin installed on CS5.5" issue?
(That can cause numerous problems because although it seems the older plugins work just fine, but it's not supposed to work.)
((Just to soothe the Conspiracy Theorists out there: it's not supposed to work because of many changes in the internal code of CS5.5. Usually, InDesign checks plugins for its own version number, but somehow that was bodged in the CS5.5 upgrade.))

  • What's a simple keyboard shortcut to change windows..?

    Hi everyone,
    I'm using a Swiss keyboard and am trying to figure out if there is a simple shortcut for switching Safari windows. I've finally figured out the shortcut for changing tabs (Command-Shift-left or right arrow) but changing windows still eludes me.
    thanks for any help,
    paul

    No, it's not the key (nor the method to make the symbol) which makes it work but your mentioning the Keyboard System Preference turned a light bulb on for me. I went through the list of Keyboard Shortcuts in System Preferences and found that Command-< was the shortcut to move focus to next window in active application. Thanks..

  • What is the keyboard shortcut for changing dictation language in Yosemite?

    I can't find the keyboard shortcuts to change the dictation language in Mac OS X?
    I would really appreciate if someone help me with this problem. I work with two languages and I really can't find any way to do that.
    Thanks for your help guys

    Until the developer can release dictationswitcher compatible with Yosemite, here is an AppleScript that will toggle between two languages. After it switches, it will speak which language has been set. Currently, the spoken text is in English (United States). This script will work on Yosemite and Mavericks. Tested.
    What you need to do to get this to work.
    Add your alternative language to the Dictation Language pop-up.Set your languages in the AppleScript property strings exactly as they appear in the Dictation Language Menu.
    Copy/Paste the following AppleScript into your Script Editor (/Applications/Utilities).
    Click the hammer (compile) button
    Save once as File format text (dictation.applescript) - don't hide the extension, or check any of the checkboxes.
    Option+Save As… File format Application to your Desktop. Hide the extension, and check no other checkboxes.
    The first time that you run this application, you will receive a dialog box just like the one below (I changed the name back to dictation):
    Click Open System Preferences. Click on the gold lock button in the lower left corner. The Accessibility category will be selected, but the dictation application in the list of apps will be unchecked. Check it, and then click the gold lock again. Quit out of the dictation application on your Desktop, and run it again. If you happen to get another dialog indicating that it still does not have permission, revisit the System Preferences > Security & Privacy panel, and under the Privacy tab > Accessibility, uncheck the dictation application, and then recheck it again. Quit System Preferences. This happened to me, and following this second action allowed it to work properly.
    Future releases of OS X may impact this application if Apple changes the order of the UI elements.
    I modified this AppleScript from an Apple StackExchange post by qegal in 2012.
    Copy/Paste the following AppleScript into your Yosemite Script Editor per the above instructions.
    property defaultLang : "English (United States)"
    property altLang : "German (Germany)"
    -- property altLang : "French (France)"
    tell application "System Events" to set p to (path to frontmost application) as string
         tell application "System Preferences"
         activate
              reveal anchor "Dictation" of pane "com.apple.preference.speech"
         end tell
         tell application "System Events"
              tell process "System Preferences"
                   tell pop up button 1 of tab group 1 of window "Dictation & Speech"
                        click
                        try
                             if (get value of attribute "AXValue") contains defaultLang then
                                 click menu item altLang of menu 1
                                 say "Dictation set to " & altLang
                             else if (get value of attribute "AXValue") contains altLang then
                                click menu item defaultLang of menu 1
                                say "Dictation set to " & defaultLang
                             end if
                       on error errmsg number errnbr
                             tell process "System Preferences" to if it is running then quit
                             display alert altLang & "not configured in Dictation Languages, please add." as critical giving up after 10
                       end try
                   end tell
           end tell
    end tell
    quit application "System Preferences"
    activate application p

    I don't think so, you have to change it in the system preferences.  You can ask Apple to add this via

  • Opera's keyboard shortcuts keep changing

    When I browse some sites, like Orkut, my keyboard shortcut configuration changes. Don't know why this happens, and when it happens, I cannot write any letter with an accent, like "é", "ã" etc.
    So everytime I enter that kind of site I have to go to Tools - Preferences - Shortcuts - Keyboard configuration and change the standard to Opera standard for UNIX. Now I can write letters with accent, but when I enter the site again, I have to do everything again!
    Does anybody have this problem too?

    Ever heard about Unicode?
    To explain it briefly: Before Unicode every charset consisted of 255 different characters (some are control characters, like e.g. line break). This means you can only use these characters. This is a problem if you want to use e.g. cryllic characters or even worse if you are asian and your alphabet consists of much more than 255 characters.
    Now with Unicode there are more characters possible. UTF-8 is now one implementation of Unicode. If you open an UTF-8 document with latin1 encoding, you'll realize that special characters (like umlauts, accented characters,...) break into two characters. e.g. Ä breaks into ä As you see, there are some characters (standard ASCII) only using the space of one character and some using up two four traditional characters.

  • Can I create a keyboard shortcut for changing text colors in Mail?

    When composing an email in Mail (v5.2), I often have the need to change the text of a few words to red to highlight them (e.g. names of people assigned to an action item) but want to do it via keyboard shortcut.  I know I can do the following:
    Press Command-Shift-C brings up to Colors panel
    Choose the color (e.g. Red) with my mouse
    Type the text
    Choose the color (e.g. back to Black) with my mouse
    Continue typing text
    And that's if I want the color panel to stay visible (add at least 3 more steps all together if I close it in the interim).
    I've tried using keyboard shortcuts to assign a color (couldn't find the right menu path) and Automator to create a script (the color panel always has to be in the right location which it may not be). None of those techniques work.
    It's an annoyance more than anything else but I imagine it should be possible.
    Thanks for any assistance!
    John

    Not only is this very possible, it's also very easy. You can do this not just for Quark but for any application in OS X. To accomplish what you want, do the following:
    * Firstly, quit QuarkXPress completely. The rest of the steps won't work if it is still running.
    * Go to the Apple menu and select System Preferences.
    * Click the Keyboard & Mouse System Preference Pane
    * Click Keyboard Shortcuts
    * Click the + button to add a new shortcut.
    * Select QuarkXPress as the application.
    * In the Menu Title field type "Place Name" exactly like that but without the quotes.
    * Click inside the Shortcut field and type the key combination you want to use for this shortcut. I suggest using Command + one of the F keys, like Command+F1.
    * Click Add.
    * Close System Preferences
    * Run Quark, open a document, and try it out!

  • Keyboard shortcut for change bars

    I have the pleasure (?!) of updating the technical content of a whole series of documents written originally by a bunch of people, and sending the results to yet another bunch of people for review. To help the reviewers identify where I've made changes, I use change bars. Great so far...
    However, while updating the original work I'm finding that I have to repair spelling, grammar and formatting errors too. The resulting change bars would be a real mess if I didn't turn them off for each of the minor repair jobs, so that they identified only the changes to technical content.
    According to the FM Help and other information sources, the ESC c h or the Ctrl+Shift+H keyboard shortcut sequences toggle change bars on and off, but in reality this doesn't happen. Does anyone know of a quick way to toggle change bars?

    > According to the FM Help and other information sources,
    > the ESC c h or the Ctrl+Shift+H keyboard shortcut sequences
    > toggle change bars on and off, but in reality this doesn't happen.
    They work for me. Perhaps they don't work the way you expect.
    If you want to turn off change bars, so that they're no longer
    applied when you make a change, you use "Esc o b" and turn
    the function off in the dialog that opens. Turn them on again
    in the same way.
    If you already have a change bar applied, and you want to
    delete it, then you can use Ctrl+Shift+H. The problem is that
    the shortcut toggles the change bars, and change bars is a
    character property. The easiest way to do it is:
    1. Select a range of characters bigger than where the
    change actually occurs. If possible, it's often easiest
    to select the entire paragraph.
    2. Press Ctrl+Shift+H *twice*. The first time, change
    bars are applied to all characters. The second time, the
    change bars are removed.
    Or, use the Find function to search for change bars,
    and then press Ctrl+Shift+H *once*. Since the search
    selects the exact characters where change bars are
    applied, you only need one press to remove them.

  • Keyboard shortcut for changing window/tab

    Hi
    Hope you're well. This is odd that I've not been able to find this anywhere.
    In Flash CS5 (Mac OS). Window menu... right at the bottom it lists the windows you've got open with a number in front ie:
    1 project.fla
    2 class.as
    3 interface.as
    Now... if I click (with the mouse) to focus (activate) the window menu and press a number key corresponding to a window in the list, Flash kindly takes me to that window.
    Q: What is the 100% keyboard shortcut way to do this?
    I've had a go at wading in and just pressing keys... as my last-but-one strategy for finding this out. My last strategy being "ask". :-)
    Cheers.

    Cheers Nivesh
    That's such a boon, cool.
    Just to clarify for everyone, Mac Keyboard, it's the command and tilde key ( ~ ), but not using shift, Nivesh is correct. I had difficulty deciding whether it was the aposthrophy - my eyesight....
    Thanks again.

  • Can I create a keyboard shortcut to change the reference point? (Mac CS6)

    I'm forever changing the reference point during a job and the tiny squares are a nightmare (my eyes aren't what they used to be), a shortcut to change it from the centre to top left would be great.

  • My tab button doesn't work anymore and I use the "command  Tab" keyboard shortcut to change between open applications.  A LOT.

    I have a wireless keyboard and the tab key stopped working today.  I don't know if I can work effectively without the tab key.  I use x.7.4
    I don't have the money to purchase a new computer so I'm thinking a good workaround would be to use another key for TAB.  How can I do this? 

    If you have a Mac Mini, you just need a new keyboard.   Logitech, MacAlly, and Microsoft all make Mac compatible keyboards.   
    iOS is not running on your machine.   It is Mac OS X 10.7.4 you need to be selecting for your signature.

  • Keyboard shortcuts have changed (?)

    Hi all,
    I'm in UK and use British English settings for my keyboard.
    Recently I've noticed that when pressing shift+3, which would usally
    give me '£', now gives me '#'.
    So basically shift and alt have switched functions.
    I've no idea how to sort this and thought it may have been
    something I've acidentally activated when cleaning the keyboard
    (whilst still plugged in)
    Like I've hit a combo of keys and this is what it's done.
    As always, any help would be really appreciated.
    thanks,
    Ben

    Both. The keystrokes matched the unusual shortcut commands that the menus were displaying. I would've just gone with it, but I couldn't figure out how to do Ctrl + c. (No, my caps lock was NOT stuck on. )
    I decided to try a system restore, and that solved the problem, and so, unless I decide to undo my restore, I won't have any screenshots. ha.
    I've been working with MS keyboard layout creator, and was using my custom made alternate keyboard layout, i.e. not qwerty, but everything was working just fine--a little buggy, but workable. I really thought maybe during some of my 'experimenting' with Function keys, that I had inadvertently hit something that had put me into a 'different mode', but searching Preferences dialog didn't yield any help--indeed, there isn't supposed to be another mode.
    Come to think of it, something like this happened to me several years ago with a different computer--too long ago for me to remember right off, but it was on the file menu of the IE browser(?) (which I don't use anymore, but I was trying out Avant browser, which it turns out is somehow linked up with IE, so I just uninstalled it, too).
    Thanks,

  • What is the keyboard shortcut for changing buttons in dialog box?

    What is the shortcut to choose another button with the keyboard?
    In the example below, I just want to switch from "Don't Add" to "Add".

    Thanks! That worked perfectly. I wonder why that isn't the default?
    So now I can tab to the other button and press space to select, excellent.
