How to set Keyboard shortcuts for Flash Pro CS6?

I have started to use Flash Pro CS6, but my keyboard shortcuts such as F6 to insert a new Keyframe didn't work..I soon found that you could create your own Keyboard Shortcut list within the Flash application, and I am trying to enter F6 for a new Keyframe, but it only lets me enter one letter/number at a time and deletes the other one. I have made sure that F6 isn't in use. It now isn't, any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

if no shortcut works, try resetting your flash pro preferences:
Hold down Shift+Ctrl+Alt (Win) or Shift+Command+Option (Mac) when starting flash pro.

  • How to set keyboard shortcut for popup enter as spacebar?

    I want to create a shortcut where I can use a spacebar for all the popup's action.
    It is very cumbersome, to scroll to the popup and then select an action for the popup.
    It would be very easy, If I can use tab to scroll amongst the option of popup and press spacebar to select an action.

    See System Preferences > Keyboard > Keyboard Shortcut > (at the bottom) Full Keyboard Access > select "All controls."
    This will probably help, but your mileage may vary. See:
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dialog_box#Application_modal
    And I would use the return key, and not the space bar.

  • Setting Keyboard Shortcuts for Services won't work

    I've tried to set Keyboard Shortcuts for Services like "New Terminal Tab from Folder" but it won't work. I even tried it on my friend's machine to no avail.
    Here's where I'm setting it up. And yes, I've turned on the checkbox & set the shortcut I want. I've even tried a few different keyboard shortcuts that are complicated to ensure that it's not competing with something else.
    To note, I'm using TotalFinder but my friend, whose machine I tested this on, doesn't.
    We are both running 10.8.2 on the latest MacBook Pro with Retina Display, 15".

    I have a similar scenario......except my services that I created run one time, and then won't run again. 
    For example, I created a service to open a new blank email message for me to type in.  I assigned Cntl-Opt-Comm-M to this service.  I hit the key sequence and it works the first time.....the mail window pops open. 
    If I then close the mail window that it spawned and do it again, no mail window opens.
    I also did this to create a blank Calendar event and also another one for Reminders. 
    They all run one time and then not again.
    Any ideas?

  • FAQ: How do I trim in the Timeline using keyboard shortcuts in Premiere Pro CS6 and CC?

    You can now trim with a lot more keyboard shortcuts in the Timeline in Premiere Pro CS6 and CC. See this article for details: Timeline trimming using keyboard shortcuts in Premiere Pro CS6.

    I'm relieved (if a little frustrated!) that others have the same issues, it makes me feel at least it's not just me! :-)
    I am running Windows 7 64 bit Intel quad core processor 8Gb RAM if that helps Jim?
    Another quick test shows I have exactly the same issues as shooternz and Ann Bens above at 7 & 8 respectively. An audio only or audio/video clip from Bin to SM and I can add markers on the fly perfectly. Audio/video from the timeline to SM works just the same. Audio only from the timeline will not work however.
    I tried linking a video clip to my audio clip to see if that would allow me to add markers then unlink and remove the video... but when I opened that in SM the add marker button was greyed out and the keyboard shortcut (M) didn't work either!
    Curiouser and curiouser...

    Does this work in Flash Pro CC?

    Thanks Colin.
    I was thinking of adding a comment to my previous post along the lines of, "You would think that Adobe could make this process easy."   It appears that they could, and they have. 

  • Timeline trimming using keyboard shortcuts in Premiere Pro CS6

    Just wrote a new blog post about Timeline trimming using keyboard shortcuts in Premiere Pro CS6.
    It's in the FAQ now, as well.
    Check it out.

    Good question.  If/when it does it again, I'll check.  However, until you asked that, I never noticed the keyboard layout options and that one of them is CS5.5.  That's an easier fix for me than re-customizing everything, as I was just wanting the CS5 layout. 
    Something else I noticed is that my workspace is set for "Import from Project" and I'm supposing it's possible that the keyboard layout is connected to the workspace and might be either resetting it to CS6 or custom, which may or may not have had those customizations.   About 25% of the projects I'm working on currently are pre-CS6, so every time I load one of those up, it might be making everything else go wonky. 
    In any event, I have a better idea what to look out for now.  Thanks

  • How to change keyboard shortcut for cycle through open tabs in PS and AI CC 2014

    I would love to set my own keyboard shortcuts for cycling through open tabs in PS and AI 2014 on OS X. I found out that this can be achieved with ctrl+tab in PS, but I couldn't manage to make any of the suggestions in the forum work for AI. As said, I would like to set a more "standard" shortcut like alt+cmd+arrow-keys for both of the apps. If that shouldn't be possible, does anyone know a shortcut in AI CC 2014?
    Many thanks!
    Amadeus

    Thanks! The shortcut can be set like this in AI, although all key combinations I would want to use are not allowed. Too bad. But anyways, thank you very much for the tip!
    cmd+~ is not an option for me, I guess, since the swiss/german keyboard layout has no dedicated tilde key.
    So, I have a working shortcut in PS (ctrl+tab / of which I still don't know how to change, if possible at all) and thanks to you, I can now set one in AI as well. Unfortunately, I can not set it to be identical as in PS, since the "cmd" key needs to be included in AI's shortcut assignment dialogue, but I guess, this is as good as it gets.

  • How to enable keyboard shortcuts for configuration entry point?

    Hello All,
        In my process model, I have a configuration entry point sequence (sequence). I can able to select the corresponding entry from the menu bar ie. configure --> options (for eg). Now I need to have a keyboard shortcut for the same. In my case if I press (for eg) ctrl+w, the configuration entry point sequence must be called.
    Note - I have to do this using .NET programmatically.
    Is there any way I can incorporate this mechanism...?
    Thanks
    Arun

    Hello Arun,
    At this time there is not anyway to customize the keyboard shortcut keys for menu items you add to the TestStand sequence editor.  R&D is looking into implementing this in a future version of TestStand.  I'll pass along your feedback to them, and let them know there are others interrested in this feature.

  • How to import keyboard shortcuts into Flash 8 Pro?

    Recently i upgraded my computer to Windows XP, so backed
    everything up, reformatted and reinstall. The usual.
    One thing i use very often in Flash is my own custom keyboard
    shortcuts, which i found handy that you can export them.... however
    a huge problem i just came across when reinstalling everything and
    getting back into using Flash... I CANT IMPORT KEYBOARD SHORTCUTS?!
    I cant seem to find this option anywhere, which is incredibly
    annoying as you would expect along with a "Export set as HTML"
    option for exporting your keyboard shortcuts.... but an option to
    simply import them is nowhere to be found! I cant even find a
    folder that i can put the html file i created with my keyboard
    shortcuts.... Tried putting it everywhere in the Flash 8
    directories.... and still doesnt show up.
    Hell, photoshop isnt this confusing, just drop the file in
    the Presets/Keyboard Shortcuts folder, and you're done! I dont see
    this anywhere for Flash... even in the Local Settings/Application
    Data folder where it STORES the shortcuts in its own WFX format!
    Too much of a pain remembering all the key configs i had
    setup... only option is to change em as i go along i guess, but
    there HAS to be an easier way to do this!
    Any idea?
    *Edit* Ok, now i just realized my mistake... having seen
    where the shortcuts are saved, i didnt think of looking for them
    there earlier... so i didnt back that up. Arg!

    if no shortcut works, try resetting your flash pro preferences:
    Hold down Shift+Ctrl+Alt (Win) or Shift+Command+Option (Mac) when starting flash pro.

  • How do I set  keyboard shortcut for 'Get Mail'?

    Went to system preferences - keyboard - shortcuts - App shortcuts and added Mail.app
    Get Mail        cmd  G
    However, it doesn't work.  It just makes a nasty noise when I'm in mail and use the shortcut.

    The command is Get New Mail. It already has a keyboard shortcut, Shift-Command-N. Command-G is already used for Find Next (i.e., find the next occurrence of a find text).

  • Keyboard shortcuts for Macbook pro and wireless keyboards.

    I´ve searched for an answer to this issue because it seems so obvious, but I can´t seem to find anything useful. Perhaps I´m just terrible at searching relevant posts here. I apologize if this has been addressed before.
    I´m taking some tutorials (from Lynda.com and Ripple training, to name a few) and in all of them, even those about very recent software, they keep aluding to ye olde long keyboards of yesteryear, when you had tildes and the plus and minus signs were on it's own keys. But most modern mac keyboards, on laptops such as macbook pro's, as well as desktop computers now, use the short keyboard. So, for example, if in the tutorial they explain how to reduce the size of a brush with a shortcut pressing command and the plus sign, that shortcut can't be used in a macbook pro, because to get the plus sign you also need a modifier, which completely alters the function of the sortcut.
    Now, I guess one could simply edit every command individually, but it seems to me there's gotta be a simpler, easier way to fix this, since old long keyboards have been almost fazed out. It amazes me why don't the programs such as Final Cut, to name an Apple proprietary, just come with a preset for long and short keyboards at this point. But they still don't.
    I hope someone can assist me with this issue, and I´m sorry about the syntax and grammar, english is not my native language.

    Tom,
    No I have not asked on a dedicated forum since this is an issue I've had with several programs (I should start to refer to them as apps), however, it's not a bad idea and I'll skim those forums to see if this issue has been addressed. Also, indeed you are right and I made a mistake in my previous post, the + sign comes up by just pressing that multipurpose key, with shift it will produce the asterisk and with option it will produce the bracket. I got carried away with Melophage's first post where the plus sign is used as an example. I apologize to both for my mistake, and I'll try to be more specific and careful in the future.
    Tom and Melophage,
    My keyboard does have the Spanish-ISO mode of input by default, and I've added the US input also, although I hardly ever use it. And indeed, being able to do something simple like zooming on a document or a web page with command and the plus sign is something I can easily manage. However, the things I usually have a problem with are, for example (and I'll be more specific this time), in photoshop cs6 to reduce or increase the size of a brush, you have to press either the left or right bracket. For me to get the left bracket, I have to press option and a multipurpose key that contains these three signs: ` ^ [. Now, in photoshop, as soon as you press the option key, the brush, or whatever tool you have selected, turns into the eyedropper tool, so pressing option and multipurpose key doesn´t get you a bracket, gets you the eyedropper and ignores any other key you press.
    In final cut there is a similar problem with the bracket to make L cuts with a shortcut that uses the bracket, and both programs also make use of the tilde key, which I don't even have in my keyboard.
    You both made me realize, of course, that the problem lies in my regional configuration of the keyboard, and that software makers probably just avoid the hassle of having to come up with multiple different sets of keyboard shortcuts due to those different layouts. I still think this is something that should be addressed right from the box, but now I realize it might not be such a prevalent issue, specially with people who have the US keyboard layout.

  • How to set mac shortcuts (for mac and windows OS)

    i am having a bit of an issue.
    i run windows 7 and mac os on the same computer on different hard drives in this computer. i also have a "mac" keyboard. i am not sure how this may be different from a "windows keyboard" but the point is i need to use this keyboard because it matches the one on my laptop which is a mac.
    when i switch to windows on this machine i always end up deleting information because the CMD + X and CMD + V cut and paste shortcuts on Mac OS are not the same in windows. windows requires (currently) CTRL + X and CTRL + V. so when i got to cut and paste in windows CTRL + X (this is my habitual way of working) and then i run a CTRL + V i end up writing /over/ the text i selected with a "x" and i end up pasting /over/ the text i selected to paste over with a "v". this is because instead of running a cut and paste, this set of shortcuts in windows simply enters "x" and "y" respectively since the shortcut is not active.
    does anyone know where i set these in windows OS and in mac OS?
    also, does anyone know if it is possible to set how many UNDOS i can do in either of these OS's or to know how many i can in fact undo?
    THANKS
    long story background:
    1. while i may move to a windows keyboard on the computer i am using (because the mac keyboards these days end up losing keys and they end up very wobbly) i cannot do this for the laptop machine so this may not make a lot of sense if i end up also running windows on the laptop which is my intention at some point.
    2. CTRL + X is a very long stretch on the mac keyboard so rather than switching mac shortcuts to accommodate windows shortcuts i am thinking to switch windows shortcuts to mac ATM.
    3. this is no small issue! i just went to copy and paste this text so i could save it for myself in order to explain to someone else and i ended up overwriting with a "c". if i had not thought fast and remembered to UNDO by hitting CTRL - X and not CMD - X i might have lost all my work.

    long delay - no email of your post here
    I also realise that you can use system preferences - Keyboard - modifier keys to make cmd = ctrl or vice versa
    I'd surely ask/read elsewhere about altering windows, given the reach issue - but no qualms beyond confusion if switching/using other machines.  You might soon find you switch layouts mentally, quite easily.

  • Keyboard shortcut for flash context menu?

    What is the keyboard shortcut to open a context menu in Flash? Shift+F10 doesn't work.. Now I am trying to implement a key-down event handler like below:
    public function customKeyHandler(e:KeyboardEvent):void
        if (e.keyCode == flash.ui.Keyboard.F10 && e.shiftKey)
    But  this is not working as the F10 key in flash is reserved by the system and cannot be used in action script according to
    this  http://www.flexer.info/2009/12/20/flexflash-keyboard-key-codes/ .
    Does anyone know how to go about enabling context menu in Flash to be opened using keyboard (not mouse right click) ??

    please don't cross-post.
