CS6: Edit - Keyboard Shortcuts javascript error

Does anyone know how to fix this:
In CS6, when I right-click a new snippet and select Edit Keyboard Shortcuts, I just get a javascript error, the same error I get if I try to create a keyboard shortcut directly from the menu at the top of the screen, Edit -> Keyboard Shortcuts.
The error is "At line 321 of <path>\Keyboard Shortcuts.js getMenuTree: Argument number 1 is invalid."
After that, where the list of standard shortcuts should appear, the list is blank. All the other built-in shortcuts also are blank, and trying to duplicate the standard set just creates a blank set and doesn't let me add anything. Deleting Dreamweaver's cache file, the blahblah.dat thing, doesn't fix it.

Troubleshoot JavaScript errors. Start with steps 10 & 12.

Edit keyboard shortcuts

Can you add the same functionality to edit keyboard shortcuts (currently in photoshop)?
Thanks

And also the ability to use slide show's very handy shortcuts in Bridge and ACR.

Unable to edit keyboard shortcuts

Hi all.
Using my iMac at home and wanted to duplicate a shortcut I have at work. I use Microsoft Natural keyboards both places and I tied the Print Screen button to the screenshot command that saves the image to a file on the desktop at work. Well, now at home and I can't edit any of the keyboard shortcuts. I double click on them and nothing happens. I can create new application specific ones, but editing any existing ones is just working.
Anyone have any ideas as to why I would be unable to edit any of my shortcuts?

You can't, unfortunately.

Overwrite edit keyboard shortcut

whenever i attempt to use the F10 keyboard shortcut to do an overwrite edit all that happens is my sound is muted since F10 also happens to be the mute key. i looked in system preferences to see if there was a way to disable the mute function but couldn't find anything in the keyboard shortcut settings. so my question is how do i use F10 as a keyboard shortcut in final cut express.

I had the same problem (I have the new aluminum keyboard). After reading Tom's post, I went into System Preferences and checked the box to use all F1, F2, etc. keys as standard function keys.
However, as a result, F10 by itself functions to darken the desktop behind FCE's windows, and to cause the various FCE windows to separate and slightly recede. I then discovered that the combination of Command-F10 is the Overwrite Edit function.

Would like to know how to edit keyboard shortcuts so I can skip through 5 consecitive tabs whilst pressing enter?

I play a browser game called tribal wars, to play this game well I need to be able to launch attacks in rapid succession by opening multiple tabs and selecting my troops in each tab that I want to send. I need to be able to cycle through five tabs whilst pressing enter is there a way of assigning a keyboard short cut so I could do it in 150 milli seconds?

You can also use "Ctrl+Page Down" to go to the next tab or "Ctrl+1" to "Ctrl+8" to go to the first 8 tabs (Ctrl+( takes you to the last tab).

Editing keyboard shortcuts?

Is there a way to modify the keyboard shortcuts in Aperture? I tried doing it via the Keyboard & Mouse control panel but the change doesn't have any affect in Aperture. I want to use the zero key on the numeric keypad to mark a reject. It's close to the arrow keys and is more convenient when I'm going through a shoot quickly and marking the rejects.
Regards,
fh

By pure dumb luck, I found that one can modify the keystrokes much like one uses the Apple Toolbar. If one click-drags a colored command button off of the "Key Detail" frame it will "puff" disappear (be deleted). If one click-drags a colored command button to another location, it will be duplicate assigned to that key combination. Also, if one click-drags a command description off the "Command List" frame to a slot on the "Key Detail" frame, that command will be assigned to that key combination (or replace what was there to begin with.) Thus one can delete, modify and customize the Keystroke commands to any configuation one wants! I have found no detailed instructions or guides for this process and discovered it by experimentation (aren't Mac's wonderfully forgiving.) I hope this explaination will help others customize.
Now if I could just discover how to print-out the customized list of the commands and key combinations, I be a real happy camper!

Adobe CS6 PhoneGap Build Service JavaScript error: At line 565

Hello everyone,
We need some help, when I click on REBUILD APPLICATION (PhoneGap Build Service) I get a dreamweaver pop up box that says:
While executing onClick in PhoneGap Build Service.htm the following Java error:
At line 565 of file "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\AdobeDreamweaverCS6\Configuration\PhoneGapBuildPlugin\js\PhoneGapPlugin.js": Keys has no properties
What can I do to solve this?
Thanks

Hi billabear.
Charbarred is correct that the answer lies in that discussion; however, there are multiple answers in there and it may be unclear exactly what the solution is. Essentially, you need to re-create the project settings file for the app you are building, since it contains erroneous data.
See the response from Ken Barklage in the same discussion Charbarred mentioned: http://community.phonegap.com/nitobi/topics/dreamweaver_now_cant_build_after_todays_update _please_help#reply_10869042

Keyboard shortcut for filling layer with color are opposite on my PS CS6 OSX install, Help?

Hello all,
I'm a bit of a noob, and following a tutorial….and found something strange and wonder if you might help me figure what's happening.
I have Photoshop Extended CS6 on a macbook pro (late 2011).
I'm running OSX v 10.7.5
I'm following along and the instructor added a new layer. I did this.
He then filled the layer with white which is his background color (he has black foreground, white background). I have the same fore/background colors.
Now, I thought on mac that to fill with foreground color you hit Apple+Delete and to fill with background you hit Option+Delete
It is doing the exact OPPOSITE for me. I hit Apple+Delete (or even backspace) and it fills with my background color which is white
If I hit Option+Delete (or backspace) it fills with my foreground color.
I've tried looking in the Edit Keyboard shortcuts area…but I don't see these settings anywhere.
I do have an external keyboard hooked to my mac. It is a 3rd party one, but seems to work in ever other way normally.
Keyboard here is: http://pckeyboard.com/page/UKBD/UB40P4A
Any suggestions why my keyboard shortcut for filling a layer with color might be reversed?
Thanks in advance,
CC

Thanks for the reply.
I did do a Google and I got this:
http://blog.coghillcartooning.com/84/tip-keyboard-shortcut-to-fill-a-photoshop-layer-or-se lection-with-the-background-or-foreground-color/
And from that I got the option-delete was background, and apple-delete was foreground.
Hence my confusion...
Thanks for the reply, I guess I should check 2-3 sites each time I google for keyboard shortcuts for PS.

CS6 brush size keyboard shortcut?

Just started working a bit with the CS6 beta. I'm used to CS5.1 where I can use the ' * ' key to increase / 'SHIFT' + ' * ' to decrease the brush size which does not work in the CS6 beta (Mac).
So: What's the new keyboard shortcut to change the brush size?

Check to see if they are still set in the Keyboard Shortcuts window.
Edit > Keyboard Shortcuts
Select "Tools" from "Shortcuts For"
Scroll down until you see Increase/Decrease Brush Size.
That will allow you to set the shortcuts.
If that fails, you may want to reset preferences. http://forums.adobe.com/message/4209421#4209421

[Keyboard Shortcuts] Editing the indk.-file

Hi.
I'm working in a newspaper and we have upgraded our advertisement software. With this software a plugin is installed to InDesign to save and export.
On the last version you had the possibility to assign a keyboard shortcut in Edit > Keyboard Shortcuts to the feature AdPoint > Save and Export PDF.
In the new version the menu is stil present and being used to "Save and Export" every advert produced. However, the menu does not appear in Edit > Keyboard Shortcuts.
Ive been trying to edit the .indk-file, but with no luck.
I copied the .indk-file from when the last version that was used. It didnt work, but this is the part in the .indk-file:
<shortcut>
     <action-id value="0xe9600 + 5" name="KBSCE Other:0xe9600kAPP_ExportPDF_MenuItemKey"></action-id>
     <context>DefaultContext</context>
     <string>Shift+Ctrl+E</string>
</shortcut>
Anyone know how to make this work?
Version: InDesign CS5
OS: Windows 7

The best way to add a +1 would be for everyone to file a feature request. Those are officially tracked by Adobe (unlike this user-to-user forum) and the more people that ask for something, the more likely it is to be implemented.

Add cite to keyboard shortcuts

Hi, I can't for the life of me find out where to add the <cite>text</cite> to the keyboard shortcuts.
I'm using DW CS4.

In CS6, when I right-click the new snippet and select Edit Keyboard Shortcuts, I just get a javascript error, the same error I get if I try to do create a keyboard shortcut directly from the menu at the top of the screen, Edit -> Keyboard Shortcuts. The error is "At line 321 of <path>\Keyboard Shortcuts.js getMenuTree: Argument number 1 is invalid." After that, where the list of standard shortcuts should appear, the list is blank. All the other built-in shortcuts also are blank, and trying to create a new set just creates a blank set that doesn't let you add anything.

Importing CS4 Keyboard Shortcuts to CS5

I've discovered that you can open your custom keyboard shortcuts xml file in a text editor, and copy/paste shortcuts into your CS5 keyboard shortcuts file. Anyone else tried this? Is there an easier way to import all of your keyboard shortcuts from CS4 to CS5?

I did some experimentation, and I stand corrected! Apparently my memory was dodgy. In particular:
My experience is that it basically works fine, though it's been a while.
I thought we had tested this from CS3 to CS5, but it looks like maybe we only did it from CS5 to CS5.5. Which are a lot more similar.
(And yes, I did recall people having complaints about it, but my experience disagreed...)
Indeed, you have some problems with CS4 to CS5, but they are not subtle. At least, initially, I was getting a dialog box informing me that there were defined shortcuts in the shortcut set that were invalid (Somewhere along the way that stopped happening, which is Interesting, but probably not relevant).
Anyhow, I certainly don't disagree that pasting the XML differences is the better way to go -- I said as much in post #13.
But by way of recompense, here are a pair of scripts to make it easier.
Both require you to create a special shortcut set called "defaults" (i.e. defaults.indk) that they use as a baseline for differences. For a variety of reasons, it is insufficient for the script to use the Default.indk file in the application directory. Both scripts pop up an error if you have not done this, and tell you how to do it.
The first one, extractShortcuts.jsx, prompts you to select a shortcut file to extract from, compares it against the default shortcut set, and outputs and differences to a file on the Desktop, extracted.xml. Run this in CS4.
The second one, importShortcuts.jsx, prompts you to select the extracted.xml file from previous, asks you for the name of the new shortcut set, and then merges the two. It merges them in a fairly stupid way (just plain appending just before the end), but it's probably sufficient.
So here we go, exportShortcuts.jsx:
#target InDesign
(function() {
     var appdir = app.filePath,
          prefs, shortcuts,
          i, s,

          if (s.match("Preferences") && s.match(/Scripts$/)) {
               prefs = new File(s).parent;
               break;
     if (!prefs) {
          alert("Could not find User Preferences directory");
          exit(1);
     // $.writeln(prefs.fsName);
     shortcuts = prefs.getFiles("InDesign Shortcut Sets")[0];
     defaults = shortcuts.getFiles("defaults.indk")[0];
     if (!defaults) {
          alert(

     'The app-folder Defaults.indk is NOT sufficient. Please go to '+
     'Edit > Keyboard Shortcuts, and select the the [Default] shortcut set,'+
     ' modify it in a trivial way (for instance, assign F1 to About InDesign),'+
     ' name the new set "defaults", remove the modification, and save the set.'+
     ' Then re-run this script.');
          exit(1);
     readcuts = shortcuts.openDlg("Select an INDK file to extract shortcuts from.","*.indk");
     writecuts = new File(Folder.desktop.fullName+"/extracted.xml");
     defaults.open("r");
     defxml = new XML(defaults.read());
     defaults.close();
     readcuts.open("r");
     readxml = new XML(readcuts.read());
     readcuts.close();
     writecuts.open("w");
     writecuts.writeln("<shortcut-sets>"); // hack
     defaultsByAction = {};
     for (i=0; i<defxml.shortcut.length(); i++) {
          e = defxml.shortcut[i];
          ea = e.elements()[0];
          if (ea.name() != "action-id") {
               alert("Parse failure on element "+ea);
               exit(1);
          action = ea.attributes();
          context = e.context[0];
          string = e.string[0];
          defaultsByAction[action] = { context: context, string: string };
     for (i=0; i<readxml.shortcut.length(); i++) {
          e = readxml.shortcut[i];
          ea = e.elements()[0];
          if (ea.name() != "action-id") {
               alert("Parse failure on element "+ea);
               exit(1);
          action = ea.attributes();
          context = e.context[0];
          string = e.string[0];
          d = defaultsByAction[action];
          if (!d ||
               d.context != context ||
               d.string != string) {
               writecuts.writeln(e);
     writecuts.writeln("</shortcut-sets>"); // matching hack
     writecuts.close();
And its mating half, importShortcuts.jsx:
#target InDesign
(function() {
    var appdir = app.filePath,
        prefs, shortcuts,
        i, s,
        defaults, readcuts,
        writename, writecuts,
        defxml, readxml,
        e, ea, action, context, string,
        defaultsByAction, d;
    var includes = $.includePath.split(";");
    for (i=0; i<includes.length; i++) {
        s = includes[i];
        if (s.match("Preferences") && s.match(/Scripts$/)) {
            prefs = new File(s).parent;
            break;
    if (!prefs) {
        alert("Could not find User Preferences directory");
        exit(1);
    // $.writeln(prefs.fsName);
    shortcuts = prefs.getFiles("InDesign Shortcut Sets")[0];
    defaults = shortcuts.getFiles("defaults.indk")[0];
    if (!defaults) {
        alert(
    'The script requires a special shortcut set called "defaults" to exist.\n'+
    'The app-folder Defaults.indk is NOT sufficient. Please go to '+
    'Edit > Keyboard Shortcuts, and select the the [Default] shortcut set,'+
    ' modify it in a trivial way (for instance, assign F1 to About InDesign),'+
    ' name the new set "defaults", remove the modification, and save the set.'+
    ' Then re-run this script.');
        return 1;
    readcuts = Folder.desktop.openDlg("Select an XML file to import shortcuts from","*.xml");
    writename = prompt("Choose a name for the new shortcut set. One word, no spaces, please.",
    "new");
    writecuts = new File(shortcuts+"/"+writename+".indk");
    defaults.open("r");
    defxml = new XML(defaults.read());
    defaults.close();
    readcuts.open("r");
    readxml = new XML(readcuts.read());
    readcuts.close();
    defxml.appendChild(readxml.elements());
    writecuts.open("w");
    writecuts.write(defxml);
    writecuts.close();
These are written on a Mac. I suppose there's they might not work perfectly under Windows if the logic to find the user's keyboard shortcuts directory doesn't work.
As always, install scripts by saving each script as a plain text file (in TextEdit or Notepad) and following directions at, e.g., How to Install InDesign Scripts.
Good night.

Keyboard Shortcuts crashes inDesign cs5

Everytime I go to edit> keyboard shortcuts on indesign cs5, my cursor starts spinning...and spinning... and spinning....never stops and I just have to kill it through task manager!
Anyone know how to fix this??

That sounds like a conflict of some sort with a plugin or other software running on all the computers. Mac or PC? Any non-Adobe plugins, including a font auto-activation plugin from a font manager?

No keyboard shortcuts in InDesign CS4

the keyboard shortcuts doesn't shown in any menu.
the "edit>keyboard shortcuts" has no available set, or even not creating new set.
in othyer apps (PS, Illustaror, flash) it's fine.
they are not working obviously, it's not only visual matter.
does anyone know what is wrong and how to fix it?

It sounds like the reinstall is also damaged.
I'd try again after running the cleaner tool: CS Cleaner Tool for installation problems | CCM, CS6, CS5.5, CS5, CS4, CS3
Make sure you are logged in with an adminsitrator account, and turn off you Anti-virus and Malware scanners. You may even want to go as far as a "clean boot" for the installation. See How to perform a clean boot to troubleshoot a problem in Windows 8, Windows 7, or Windows Vista

Keyboard shortcut from type tool to move tool

What is the keyboard shortcut again from the type tool to the move tool?

If you hold the mouse over the tool in the tool palette Photoshop will pop up the answer for you.
If you use menu Edit>Keyboard Shortcuts the use the summirize button Photoshop will save your shortcuts for in a HTML page. You can search that page
