Command-~ - not possible on non-english keyboard

Searched the forum and could only find this topic in the archives. It's a problem that comes up once in a while.
I love to point out that the shortcut Command-~ (and command-1,2,3,...) is still hard coded in Photoshop.
As a user on a non-english keyboard it's impossible to use the Command-~ shortcut. On Mac it's not even listed, on windows, it's listed but it can only be selected by pressing the shift key; so the shortcut doesn't work.
Hopefully Adobe will add the possibility to change this shortcut once and for all.

The no-mouse shortcut in CS4 is Cmd Option 2
The Channel shortcuts have been re-numbered with the Composite now being "2" and the next one (R, C, or Lightness depending on image mode) being "3". And so forth.
Cmd Option, plus the appropriate number, serves to select Highlights in the specified Channel.
Cmd Option Shift, plus the appropriate number, lets you add to the selection Channel by Channel.

Hotkeys do not work when non-english keyboard layout is active

I live in Russia and use Russian keyboard layout pretty frequently. Also, I am a big fan of using hotkeys. But the problem is that in any Aperture version, hotkeys only work when english/U.S. layout is active. It's pretty annoying to switch back and forth.

Non-english keyboard layouts work in some programs, not others

In some programs, I can set a non-English keyboard layout and have the appropriate behavior when it comes to diacritics - in, say, the brazilian layout, hitting { then a will give me a á, and so on. It works perfectly fine in Firefox and xchat, for instance. But in other programs, opera and openoffice to name two I've tried, this fails. I either get a garbage character when I hit the first diacritic key or I just get the diacritic by itself and then the accentless vowel: ´a.
Completely non-English characters still work fine; I can get ç in the Brazilian layout and ñ in Latin American and the Georgian one works fine too, since Georgian doesn't have diacritics I presume. It's just diacritics that don't work.
I first noticed this problem after I installed SCIM, so I assume it has something to do with the SCIM installation, but I don't know what I did in the process of installing it that would've messed things up.

History back on non-english keyboards

It appears that all non-english keyboards (meaning keyboards that does not have the [ and ] characters as a "singlepress-key"), can't use the history back and forward feature anymore. You need to use the mouse right-click feature or use the buttons in the menu. I'm using a Wacom Tablet and have my buttons are configured to history back and forward when Safari is an active window. I've tried to switch to US keyboard and make the shortcut in the Wacom software, but after I go back to my native language - Danish - it doesnt work. After Apple changed the option from backspace to command + [ and ], I cannot use the history anymore unless I have to use the mouse.
Can anyone help?

Hi Jim,
That shouldn't be a problem at all, if you buy it in the US, the software will be in English, but should install just fine on her PC.
I'm sure someone will give their input, some people here have bought players from other regions.

QOS: egress police command not supported in non-leaf classes

Hello,
I have issue with egress policers on EFP (Service instance).
When configure two egress policers on EFPs (on one physical interface), I received a message:
ME-3600X(config-if-srv)#service-policy output VLAN-50M
QOS: egress police command not supported in non-leaf classes
QoS: Policy attachment failed for policymap VLAN-50M
The configuration looks easy:
policy-map VLAN-50M
class VLAN
police cir 50000000
exceed-action drop
class-map match-all VLAN
match protocol ip
interface GigabitEthernet0/11
description TEST

service instance 500 ethernet
description L2MNG-SWITCHE
encapsulation dot1q 500

I tried to attach the same policy-map to Service Instance 500, with the messages above mentioned.
I am not sure if this is correct behaviour, and what means term "non-leaf class".
IOS version is 15.2(4)S2 with AdvancedMetroIPAccess.
Best regards,
Josef

Platform supports three level hierarchy - Port, VLAN and Class.
Class is the leaf level.
Queuing is done only at the leaf level.
You need to attach your policy to the port level policy so that it can be a two level policy.
Three Level Class-default Policy Example:
policy-map leaf
class class-default
queue-limit xxxxx bytes
policy-map logical
class class-default
service-policy leaf
policy-map root
class class-default
service-policy logical
Invalid Queue-Limit Policy Configuration Example:
This case "class-default" is being considered as the port level.
Following QOS policy configuration failed because the configuration check assumes user is trying to apply the queue-limit at the vlan level which is not supported.
policy-map child-1
class class-default
queue-limit 256 packets
policy-map VLAN-OUT
class class-default <<< Class default is being assumed at the port level , Child policy at the second level
shape average 5000000
service-policy child-1
interface GigabitEthernet0/5
switchport trunk allowed vlan none
switchport mode trunk
service instance 2 ethernet
encapsulation dot1q 60
rewrite ingress tag pop 1 symmetric

Screen locked with non-English keyboard layout selected

Hello,
I use two keyboard character sets for keyboard. The switch between them is Command-Space.
I also have password requirement for waking up or going from screen saver.
Now if screensaver starts with non-English layout selected, I'm not able to login:
password is not accepted because keyboard layout is not English and switching
to English layout does not work in unlocking window.
Is there any way to change layout while in the unlock window?
Thanks

Yes you are right, this is not a bug, it's just bad user interface. Just imagine the following scenario...
Writing a paper, switching to Greek to enter a couple of characters and leaving the mac idle for 5 mins.
The lock screen comes up asking for a password, unfortunately the user didn't change the language
before the mac was left idle and there is no option to change the language in the lock screen.
User has to hard reset to access the mac and let's hope that the user was saving his paper frequenlty.
So from a coding point of view this is not a bug, but from a user interface design it is a huge flaw

[LR2 - SOLUTION] Using Lightroom in englsih with a non-english keyboard layout

Hi, Many of us, non native english speaking LR users, are using LT in english on a system having a non-US keyboard layout. The conseqeunce of this is that we can't reach a lot of keyboard shortcuts because LR doesn't offer any interface for configuring them. However, there's a workaround. I'll explain here what I did for the french language but you can apply this to your own language. For the non english languages, the keyboard shortcuts are defined in C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 2\Resources\<language>\TranslatedStrings.txt. If you are using LR in english, this file is not used and there's no similar file in C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 2\Resources\en. But you can create one containing only the shortcuts that you need. I have created a new TranslatedStrings.txt file containing only the keyboard shortcuts defined for the french version. I did this by copying only the lines containing the following sequences: ....Key=... ....KeyShifted=... ...AgPanel/LeftPanelShortcut... ...AgPanel/RightPanelShortcut... ...MenuShortcut/DecreaseRating= ...MenuShortcut/IncreaseRating= (french users can find this file here: http://www.mainsoft.fr/Files/LR/TranslatedStrings.txt . Copy this file to "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 2\Resources\en" and relaunch Lightroom. Now you have the same keyboard shortcuts as when using LR in french. Interestingly enough, if you hit ctrl + < , the LR keyboard shortcut panel is displayed and it shows your new shortcuts. Again, you can do the same for your own language by copying the specified strings from the relevant folder. Hope this helps. -- Patrick Philippot MainSoft Consulting Services www.mainsoft.fr

Yes… I would at a minimum contact Apple sales or AppleCare regarding this. You have two options though. You can ask for a new one, given they can't simply swap out a keybaord you need to exchange the whole thing.
Otherwise, you can use it as a bargaining chip and say ask for a free external International English keyboard and a discount on your next Apple Store purchase… for instance.
Regardless, be polite yet firm with them as you did not get what you ordered.

Some applications don't put accents with non-english keyboard layouts

I'm using a Portuguese keyboard with three different macs running Mac OS Tiger 10.4.8/9. Some applications (like Motion 2 and Swift Publishing 2) don't allow writing some accented characters, like (è) or (ê), that are accessed by Shift+normal key, but they do display correctly other accented letters, for instance (é), witch are accessed directly without the Shift key. This happens only in some applications and with a european keyboard layout (I tried it also with the spanish and french keyboards layouts), but not with other applications (it works all right with Word or iPhoto) and the english keyboards.
Any sugestion as how to solve this? If I create the text in some other application and paste it in Motion it works! But it's a drag.

Keypress on non-English keyboard

I have a Keypress interaction for the = key on the English
keyboard. If the student has an Italian keyboard the same key
creates an ì. To make this work the Keypress icon title I used
is =|ì This works fine. Now I'm trying to match the German
keypress. Turns out the key is a "dead key" and creates an accent
mark on the next key that is entered. Any ideas on how to make the
interaction work if the German equivalant of the English = is
entered?

I would think any key or combination that produces an = on
the screen would
work, regardless of its actual position on the keyboard.

Is it possible to purchase a non-english keyboard in the US?

We often have users that would like a different langugage keyboard on their laptops. I have a brazillian user that would like a Portuguese keyboard, and was told that needs to be purchased in Brazil, or a custom laptop needs to be ordered straight from lenovo.
Can anyone shed some light on this or have experience getthing them in the US?

Hi asenft!
Look up the part number for the keyboard you want in the Hardware Maintenance Manual. There will be at least two manufacturers. A good place to search for the part is IBM Parts.
Hope this helps!
I don't work for Lenovo. I'm a crazy volunteer!

Spanish, czech, non-english keyboard problem

Hi,
I need to type in Spanish and Czech. I have the system preference "International Settings" set with my 3 languages (US English, Czech, Czech Querty, Spanish).
Problem: I open MS Word. I define the language in the MS word doc as Czech or Spanish. Then I go the to language menu bar up on the top right and choose the right language. This works fine for inputting until I use "Tab" to move to a new field in the table and all of a sudden Mac OS X 10.4.10 has changed back to US. very very very annoying! Can anyone help?? This is a huge problem for me. Thanks. Im on macbook pro, intel.

Ernesto, I think you'll find that Command-option-6 will give you the \ that you want. For future reference, it's fairly easy to find what you need by using the Keyboard Viewer. How do you see that? The simplest way is to go to System Preferences > International > Input Menu tab. There, put a check mark into "Keyboard Viewer" and also into "Show input menu in menu bar" at the bottom of the pane. Now also put a check mark into "Spanish" in the scrollable list in the center.
At this point you should see a Spanish flag in your menu bar, no matter what application you're using. When you can't find a character you need to type, simply go to the flag, click and select Keyboard Viewer. By playing around with the shift, option, command and control keys (alone and in combination) you should be able to find what you need.
Good luck!
