Function keys to wd application

Hi all,
how can I get function keys (F1, F2, F3...) to web dynpro button elements?  I am doing application where user uses keyboard (or touch screen) and not mouse and they need to jump from one field to another without having to go through them all.
Thanks for any ideas,
Kati

Of course I found previous thread about this after I wrote this question. I think I found the solution to this there.

  • Standard function keys in specific applications

    Just wondering whether there is any way to use the standard functions of F1, F2 etc in specific applications without having to have this function enabled in Leopard as a whole. For example, in general, I want to be able to adjust the volume and brightness on my Macbook Pro without having to push the fn-key. However, when, and only when, I use Pages, I want to use these keys as standard-function keys in order to be able to switch between styled. Is there any way I can make this happen??

    I would settle for knowing how to do that again, but what I would really like is the ability to either quickly turn on and off the Mac default uses for the function keys or, better yet, have it turn off in certain apps.
    I've tried the "Use all F1, F2, etc. keys as standard function keys," button in the Keyboard & Mouse System Settings, but I don't see where that has any sort of effect.
    yes, it does have an effect. it lets you use F-keys as regular keys and map them to what you want.
    The reference there to the 'fn' key makes me think it's only for laptops.
    no, this is for any keyboard that has a fn key. if you have it on your keyboard then you get that checkbox in keyboard system preferences. if you don't have it the checkbox won't even show up. when the box is checked you have to hold fn to get the functionality of the F-keys written on them. otherwise they act as regular keys that can be mapped to whatever you want. you can do this in system preferences->keyboard&mouse->keyboard shortcuts.

  • Disabling Function Keys in Select Applications

    Long ago in an OS far away, I knew how to disable the function keys so I could map them as I chose in my mappable apps. I know this was — at the time — a terminal command, but I just can't remember it. I would settle for knowing how to do that again, but what I would really like is the ability to either quickly turn on and off the Mac default uses for the function keys or, better yet, have it turn off in certain apps.

The reference there to the 'fn' key makes me think it's only for laptops. Do I have to restart the app or the computer? Will that do what I'm looking for?
    Any help?

  • Short cut - Function Keys for my Application

    Hi Friends,
    I am trying to use function keys alone (like only F5 or F6 etc) as shortcut for actions in my app....how to do it ???
    I can abe to place shortcut keys like CTRL + R or ALT + R etc...that is control keys + any key is possible...but how to do only function keys.....
    I tried using setMnemonic....setAccelerator....but i am not able to use function keys alone.....kindly help me out....
    Regards,
    V.Prasanna

    The mnemonic has to be an actual character, but function keys are perfectly valid for use as accelerators:  KeyStroke ks = KeyStroke.getKeyStroke("F6");
      comp.getInputMap().put(ks, actionID);That works for me. How are you doing it?

  • 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."
    http://www.scriptsoftware.com/ikey/
    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.
    http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=10361085#10361085
    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.

  • Function keys on different computers

    Hell-o there
    I have a problem with the function keys and my application. The fact is that the application has to work without the mouse (people steals them, so there's no mouse), only with the F keys. And it works, but only on the computer where the applicaction have been developed. This is a biiiig problem for me, because the application has to work in any computer of this bloody enterprise.
    They gave me JBuilder 7.0 , and the JDK it has is the 1.3.1
    When I say that it doesn't work, I mean that you press an F key and nothing happens.
    So, the application works on any computer that has the JBuilder installed. How can I make it work on computers without the JBuilder installed?
    thank you very much! : )

    Thank you very much for your responses, the documentation was useful, but it can't solve my problem :( , or at least I can't understand it with my english level.
    The problem: on a computer with JBuilder, you press an F key and the application behaves correctly, everything's fantastic and the world is beautiful.
    you try the same on another computer and nothing happens.
    I've done a simple application that writes the code of the key you press on a label.
    public class Pantalla extends JFrame {
    this.addKeyListener(new java.awt.event.KeyAdapter() {
    public void keyPressed(KeyEvent e) {
    this_keyPressed(e);
    void this_keyPressed(KeyEvent e) {
    label.setText("El c�digo de la tecla: "+e.getKeyCode());
    and the same problem. It works on a computer with JBuilder, and doesn't work on any another :(

  • Trapping function keys

    Forget my quastion on function key presses- I just looked in the manual and
    found what I needed (The Window.FunctionKeyPress event).
    I'll check BEFORE posting next time!

    Hi Manuel and Martin,
    Unfortunately, for Forte V2.0, Manuel is correct. But Forte has
    added a feature that allows you to trap any keystroke in Forte R3,
    which is currently in beta.
    If you are a beta site, look in the Forte Release 3 Beta Features
    manual page 169, the window class SetAsFunctionKey method.
    If you are not a beta site and want this functionality in R2,
    you would need to do some tricks with menus or data fields, as
    Manuel indicated.
    Cheers,
    Kerry
    Hi all,
    Actually, I don't think you can trap keystrokes on a UserWindow but on
    some WidGets (like DataFields), you can set to TRUE the 'Validate on
    KeyStroke' option in the properties dialog .
    Thus, when the WidGet has the focus and the user send a keystroke, you
    can trap this event with the 'AfterValueChange' event.
    If someone knows how to trap keystrokes on a UserWindow, I am also
    interested !
    Thanks.

    Objet : Trapping Certain Keystrokes
    Hi All,
    I have read the manuals, and the online-documentation, but can not seem
    to find anything about trapping keystrokes other than the Function keys.
    Our application specifically requires us to trap certain keystrokes,
    such as the navigation keys etc.
    Does anybody know which event is raised when a key is pressed?
    Any insight will be appreciated.

  • I am using Firefox for Mac (v 3.6.11, Mac OSX 10.6.4) and need to use the Function keys (specificlaly Ctrl-F7) in a web application. I can't seem to get it to work the same as in Firefox on PC.

    I am using a web application that requires the use of the F7 key. Actually, to be more precise, I need the functionality that you would get on a PC if you hit Ctrl-F7 while in this web application in Firefox. I have changed the Mac's settings to allow standard use of the function keys (rather things like volume up/down, etc.) However, when I try to use Ctrl-F7 it appears to be using the function that is built into Firefox browser rather than the web application running within Firefox. (FYI, nothing happens when I try Cmd-F7 or Alt/Option-F7 either).

    Leliforever, cheek you list of installed add-ons, the Ask toolbar can be installed without the users knowledge.

  • Using function keys in applications

    I'm writing some VBA code in excel, and although I think I should be able to get the Visual Basic editor to come up when I hit F11, or step through a macro with f8, what I get is the standard mac finder responses (f11-dashboard comes up, f8-I get that nice view of all my window in the front).
    How can I set my mac so the function keys in Excel work for the application?
    Thanks

  • Map PDA Function Keys to Application

    Hi All,
    I am working on RFID module of standard MAM. I could read the RFID tags using this hyperlink by clicking on RFID icon, in the standard application. But here my requirement is user can be able read the tag using the keys on PDA.
    i.e., when a user click on a function key(ex: F5,F4 etc), an event has to trigger and invoke the RFID function, without click on the RFID icon on the application.
    Briefly, can we map the keys on the PDA to application, using the ASCII codes of the keys.
    You help on this regard is highly appreciable.

    Hi,
    well, there is a great example in the SDK for .Net2.0CF. It is the Active Sync Exampple for C++. Take that as startpoint and implement the Keyboard codes in there. That is pretty much all you need to do. I am not in my office - I am at the customer at the moment - so unfortunately I have it not with me. But this is strsaight forward.
    Hope it helps to get you running from there.

  • Is it possible to display the standard function keys in screen painter

    Hi ,
    I design a screen in se51 where I use push buttons and input/output buttons and so on in the layout, here in the layout or in my final output screen(when i assign this screen to a transaction) I would like to display other standard keys, ie the function keys and application toolbar items. I would like to know whether there is a possibility to do this , if yes then how?
    In a menu painter there is a possibility where I can customize the keys or I can use the standard keys by going to se41 extras->adjust template. Is there similar possibilities in the screen painter.

    Ok I see. I should use &var.

  • "Undefined Function Key. Press Ctrl+F1..." Porting app from 6i to 10G

    I am running into a problem porting my application from Oracle Forms 6i to 10G. When I am querying a record based on a field that is not the first on the screen, I get an "Undefined Function Key. Press Ctrl+F1 for list of valid keys." error. I do not get the error using the same function keys from the first field on the screen. I also do not get the error if I click into another field (besides the one I an querying) before hitting my execute query key.
    I did some research, and found a fix that seems to work. I can add a WHEN_MOUSE_CLICKED trigger to the form and put in the following:
    Go_Item(:System.Mouse_Item);
    That seems to fix the issue. My problem is that I have close to 400 forms to upgrade. I would like to avoid adding this manually to every single form. I have looked into libraries, but I can't seem to figure out how to replicate a WHEN_MOUSE_CLICKED trigger using procedures. I was wondering if there was a way to use the Forms upgrade utility to add this trigger to every form it converts. Does anyone know if that can be done?
    Thanks in advance for your help with this.

    I'm not sure this solves the problem. This would call the trigger, but the trigger does not currently exist. I would still have to manually create the trigger in all 400 (or so) forms. Is there a way to add it in a more global way?
    Thanks.

  • Function Key not work when using jre1.5

    My application was based on JDK1.3 to develop and JRE 1.3 is using in the client side.
    In the application, function keys are the shortcut and it is working fine based on the above setting.
