Image of the Escape and Control key.

Hey,
I couldnt find anywhere better to put this :P.
I recorded a video on 10.5.7 and it shows the ^ key for control, and the escape icon for when I pushed the ESC key.
Does anyone know where I can find images like this.
But with Control key and Esc?

Switch the function and control keys

Sounds like a stupid request but my life would be much simpler if my Lenova T540p keyboard had the function and control keys switched. I use the control key ALOT and having it to the far left hand lower corner would be awesome.
Thank you.

Hey there Redrabbit,
Try your BIOS. For me (Thinkpad T540p), it's in Config>Keyboard/Mouse>Switch FN and CTRL keys.

Can I swap the Function and Control keys?

Is it possible to swap the Function and Control keys?

With limitations; yes. Go to System Preferences and select Keyboards & Mouse and add your choices. Keep in mind that such chances will affect all well intended Apple commands and may end up driving you crazy!

Swapping Function and Control keys on a Lenovo Laptop

Lenovo laptops reverse the usual positions of the Function and Control keys (see this photo). It seems like a minor problem, but it is very frustrating.
How can I swap these keys? I have tried various xmodmap configurations (some based on the examples provided in the manual and some based on this eerily similar question), but nothing seems to work.
Additional information
Fn keycode: 151, Fn name: XF86WakeUp
Left Control keycode: 37, Left Control name: Control_L
Thanks in advance, best community ever.

Free laptop from work. The hardware interface isn't great, but I'm not complaining. :-)
Anyway, that worked beautifully. Thanks for the tip!

Want to swap FN and CONTROL keys: Hope of BIOS support?

I hate the Lenovo placement of the FN key where most systems have Control. I've experimented with operating system changes to remap keys, but these have failed. In the Ubuntu Linux email list, people contend the swap of the FN and Control must be made in the BIOS because of the way the FN key functions.
If you know of a software method to swap the FN and CONTROL keys, please tell me.
If you have any information about using the BIOS to do that, please tell me.

Welcome to the forum!
Although enabling this swap in BIOS has been a wish expressed by many new users coming to the ThinkPad world, no BIOS currently supports it.
Hope this helps.

Loading an image in the background and displaying it as it is loaded

Hi,
I'm writing an "image viewer" swing component, which should load an image in the background, and display it as it is loaded (for example each time a line of the image is loaded, display it)
Is there a way to do this using JAI or any other api ?
I guess i would need a way to check the loading progress from the EDT, get the loaded part of the image and display it. Am I right ? Is that possible ?
Thanks,
Nicolas

In the video inspector set the Spatial Conform to "none". This will give tou the actual size of the image in the viewer. You can then use the transform controls to adjust the image to what you want to see.

How to remap keyboard - Looking to switch the "fn" and "control" buttons?

Hi I was looking for a way to switch the function and control on the bottom left side of the keyboard on my macbook pro laptop. I am used to the control button being the button that is furthest to the left and its just really throwing me off having the fn key all the way to the left. If anyone knows how to remap these keys, I would really appreciate the help.
Thank you.

Firefox 4.0 has a combined Reload and Stop and Go button that appears at the right end of the location bar.
To restore the Firefox 3 appearance you can use these steps:
* Open the "View > Toolbars > Customize" window to move the Stop and Reload button out of the location bar.
* Move the Reload and Stop buttons to their previous position at the left side of the location bar.
* Set the order to "Reload - Stop" to get a combined "Reload/Stop" button.
* Set the order to "Stop - Reload" or separate them otherwise to get two distinct buttons.

How do you copy images from the internet and paste them on Microsoft Word

I'm trying to copy images from the internet and trying to paste them on to Microsoft Word and Powerpoint for an assignment but it's not working. I tried to use copy and paste and then paste special but nothing is working. Saving the image onto documents and trying to open them on Microsoft Word still doesn't work.
PLEASE HELP!!!
Thank you

Hi Lily, and welcome to Apple Discussions.
A screenshot can capture almost anything you're viewing. Hold the command and shift keys down, then press the 4 key and release all keys. Hold down the mouse button and drag the cursor to the size/area of the image you want to capture. Release the mouse button and you've captured the image. Remember that it is the individual's responsibility to respect copyright laws.

Using caps lock key as caps lock and control key

I'd like to use the caps lock key as caps lock and control key. While I can convert the caps lock to control key very easily, there seems no way to make it both caps lock and control. Is there any way to do this? I use emacs and it'd be really useful to be able to do this.
Thanks.

Finally found something that worked for me. See this thread and look for the post about removing the Hitoolbox plist files.
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=10765093&#10765093
I removed all of them. (Had multiples) Also make sure you empty the trash afterwards.
Then restart.
Then I used the modifier key trick in this thread. Turned off the caps lock key. Then restart.
Then use the modifier key trick and turn the caps lock key back on. Test to see if your lights come back on for the caps lock key.
If so, next time you restart it should still work. Finally. This thing has been dogging me for a long time.

Apple AL Bluetooth Keyboard - Tab, Caps Lock, Function and Control keys just stopped working

Hi All -
All of a sudden I get on my baby, 27" iMac OSX 10.6 and the some keys on the bluetooth keyboard do not work. Specifially the Tab, Caps Lock, Function and Control keys. I'm fine with the caps lock gone (why is it there?) but the others are useful.
I've searched all over for a solution but I haven't found one. Tried to upgrade the firmware which is fine, reset the PRAM done, checked the speech per apple support nadda.
Please help.
Thanks

Hi
Go to System preferances > Universal Access > Mouse or Mousie and trackpad > and turn your Mouse keys off.
Then disconnect and reconnect your keyboard.
Note that you don't open your mouse under hardware in System Preferances, this is for a whole different group of settings
Hope This helps

Hi,
Thanks for the quick response.
The problem is that when I keep the logo as a watermark, the pdf is not adjusting itself to include the logo as header.
But if I add a header text via Tools -> Headers and Footers, the pdf is adjusting itself so that the header text is at the beginning , not overlapping with the contents of pdf.
But while using logo as watermark, some times overlapping of the pdf contents and logo is happening.
Is there any way to add a logo in the Header and Footer via the option in Tools -> Headers and Footers
Thanks,
Vidhya

How can I use the F14 and F15 key for a shortcut?

Hi folks,
I've been trying to assign custom shortcuts to the F14 and F15 keys of my keyboard (wired, full sized type) on my Mac Pro 2008 running Mac OS X Lion 10.7.2 however every time I try to assign those keys to an app's "Record a shortcut" function I get the same error dialog from the OS:
The key combination F15 can't be used!
The key combination "F15" can't be used because it's already used by a system-wide keyboard shortcut. (If you really want to use this key combination, most shortcuts can be changed in the Keyboard & Mouse panel in System Preferences.)
(note: the same happens with F14, F13 and lower as well as F16+ work fine however)
I have looked into my system settings as the dialog suggests however there isn't a single shortcut that uses F14 or F15 anywhere in any of the shortcut groups.
If any of you have an idea of how I could "clear" or even just find out what these keys are currently being used for/by that would be super… they don't seem to do or trigger anything when I press them.
Here is another screenshot of the issue:
Note: This is not app specific, I've tried this in various apps and every time I get the same Mac OS popup.
Thanks for reading,
I look forward to your ideas and insights!

Hi,
Use the step reference to get a PropertyObject reference using the Step.AsPropertyObject. With this PropertyObject reference you can then get the values of Limits.High and Limits.Low using the PropertyObject.GetValNumber() method.
Limits.High and Limits.Low will be the lookup string for the PropertyObject.GetValNumber() method.
Hope this helps

I need to reprogram the delete and enter key to the left side of a external keyboard for the ipad mini. don't need the caps/lock or ctrl key and due to an injury my daughter can only use her left hand to type. She is using a text to speech app to verbaliz

I need to reprogram the delete and enter key to the left side of a external keyboard for the ipad mini. I don't need the caps/lock or ctrl key. Due to a brain injury my daughter can only use her left hand to type. She also uses a text to speech app to verbalize all of her needs since her speech isn't intelligible any longer either. And her vision was significantly affected also, so the keyboard has to be mounted about 6 inches from her face. So to reach across the keyboard with her left hand to the right side delete and enter button is physically difficult and causes typing errors, which cause people to not understand what shes trying to say.
The best keyboard so far is the Zagg folio mini. I just had to make stickers to enlarge the letters on the key buttons.
Does anyone know how I can reprogram these two keys? Or where I can buy a wireless mini keyboard for Ipad made for lefthanders with these two functions on the left side. I have searched for days and days. It's sooooo important to me that she be able to contribute her voice again. Imagine if you got in a car accident and couldn't speak clearly any longer, but understood everything still. Thanks for any help and suggestions you all take the time to share with me. I really appreciate the kindness of strangers to help me help my daughter.
