Key stroke questions

1). Is there a key stroke to fill the timeline with a selected clip or group of clips.    In FCP its Shift-option-Z.
2). is there a way to 'snap' the razor tool to something for a precise cut?

1) Zoom in or out to the timeline pointer with the + or - keys, Hold the alt key and move the mouse scroll wheel, the \ key under Back Space to return to all clips on the sequence.
2. Move the timeline pointer and press the shift key.

  • My G5 won't boot up. The Gray screen comes on and it thinks about it until the fan revs up like it is about to explode. A friend said to start it up with the OS disk and then go to utilities. Didin't work. Any suggestions? Isn't there a key stroke to help

    Oh, so this is where I ask my question. Sorry, first time here. As I was saying in my long intro, the gray screen come up and the thing is spinning at the bottom, but nothing happens. Then the fan starts reving up like it is about to explode and I have to manually shut it off. A friend told me to start it up with the OS disk and then go to utilities. I couldn't find the thing, so I went out and bought another. Needless to say, it didn't work. Is there a key stroke to help jump start the machine? How can I get into this thing? I would prefer not to take it in because there are a lot of things on there I don't want just anyone to have access to.Thanks, in advance, for your help!

    Your drive does need to be repaired, and best things to buy are another backup recovery drive, with a small OS X partition; a copy of Disk Warrior is expensive @ $90 but excellent and best.
    Never bother with or use the drive or reinstall while there are errors. Don't take a "clean' bill from Apple Disk Utility to mean there are no errors. Only that it didn't find what it looked for.

    Make sure to have multiple backup sets and of your system so if there is a serious problem, you can just erase and restore to be back runninig.
    Sounds like your G5 though needs PMU reset, not PRAM, and the best way for those is to clear nvram instead. might even want to check for dust; tell what System Profile says (later) as to "PowerMacX,Y" or "MacProX,1"

    The Utility menu is on the menu bar of an "OS X Install DVD" and at the point where you get to but stop at "install....' for OS X. you probably do need to install OS X on another drive to work from.
    Oh, a real severe issue and damage to the drive directory or filesystem CAN in cases prevent booting from DVD (the system still tries to find and see what boot volumes are present) and can help to pull or disconnect the drive. Putting a drive in a FW case to turn on after startup is very useful.

  • Save for Web keyboard key stroke not worky

    I'd swear I've asked or seen this discussed in these forums...but I can find no thread, even when I search for my own screen name. At any rate, I think it also happened to me back in version 6. I'm now in version 8 on a Mac.
    The symptoms are the same as the last time this happened. The "shortcut" key strokes (on the Mac) are command + shift + option + S (probably use 'alt' instead of 'option and "control' instead of 'command' on Windows?). This will usually show a brief darkening of the File menu, but nothing else happens. Until...the same keys are pressed again! Of course, mousing to the menu item works fine, but I have managed to avoid carpal tunnel syndrome and still press all four keys with one hand! Sometimes I get my cat to help...
    Since Adobe is gracious enough to provide about three dozen various pref files, it should be a breeze to start archiving them and deleting the originals. NOT! However, in my searching for the likely pref file, I have discovered that the "Adobe Save For Web 8.0 Prefs" file seems to be AWOL on my System! I have over a dozen backups of that file in Time Machine, despite the fact that they all show exactly the same Modified date, which would normally be the only reason TM would save another copy of the file. This may also indicate why the settings for the Save For Web dialog never remember the last used settings; the file thinks it is getting written to but never changes its Modified date even thought that 'state' is obviously recognized by the OS. But that's all beside the point and I digress...
    SO...does anyone remember the 'trick' for getting PSE 6/8 to remember the Save For Web keystrokes the first time they are used, instead of waiting for 'verification?'
    Thanks!

    Uh oh. You should have had an uninstaller in the PSE 8 folder in applications. I'm afraid you may have set yourself up for bigger problems by doing it this way. You may well find that you will eventually need to download and run the CS4 cleanscript to get straightened back out again.
    You may be correct, but I've had no other problems after all the different un-install methods. The only pieces that are hard to find are those that Adobe chooses to hide deep in System areas. I suppose since they were one of the first Mac developers, they think they have special capabilities to put stuff any and every where they want. As well as special dispensation to do things anti-Mac ways. I can't claim to be a power-user, but I have never, ever felt the need to purchase/use any special "uninstaller" app. And I can't think of another app I've ever owned that even needed an "uninstaller" for it. That includes Canvas, php, Apache setups, etc. Frankly, and this is simply my opinion and obviously of little importance to absolutely no one else, the way Adobe does things seems to be extremely un-organized, not-well-thought-out and downright non-Mac. The only thing even marginally close to their confusing instal/uninstall process is Stanford's Folding@home set up. It sometimes requires a few Terminal commands...
    I will perform a search for that CS4 "clearscript" thing, however. Thanks!
    Even the response I got from my Support post assured me that...
    reset/restore the Preferences, click Yes or OK . Now try to use the "Save for Web" keyboard command by pressing "Alt+Shift+Crtl+S". I am positive that after following the above steps your issue will be resolved .
    OK, I get the rest/restore step. but what does the "alt+shift+Crtl+S" have to do with anything? It certainly is not the keyboard short cut for the Mac version of Elements. Perhaps the chap didn't notice the details in my message or the hardware/software information that came with my request for help. I find it strange that somehow the language differences cause the tech's positive belief that his steps would fix the issue that he also presents:
    If the issue is still not resolved then please send us the below mentioned information so that we can provide you with the best possible resolution:-
    1. Have you recently made any changes to your computer?
    2. Are you logged in as administrator ?
    3. Does the issue persist on another system or another user account ?
    4.     Do you get any error message while pressing the combination of "Alt+Shift+Crtl+S" keys on the keyboard? if yes then send us the screen shot of the error message that you are getting
    5.     Please provide the exact system Configuration with details along with the Versions.
    Every single one of those questions was included with the initial message I sent.
    I suspect that the problem is, indeed, in my System, somewhere. I installed Elements on my wife's MBP and it operated normally, even the command+option(alt)+shift+S command. So, when I get some time this week, I'll start up in Safe mode and see if that helps. If not, I'll start removing third-party Pref Panels and apps, a few at a time. If none of that helps, I may try retrieving files from Time Machine. As a last effort, I can always do an Archive and (re)Install of Snow Leopard. I'm just not sure it's worth all the effort to get one measly short cut... The only thing I know for sure is that I will not be seeking any more help from Adobe's "tech support." Why bother, they don't/can't even read the messages their own system sends!

  • Using key strokes as command in AT LINE SELECTION section.

    Hi all,
    I created a small report which do a refresh every X seconds. In every refresh, the form "print_panel" is performed. In this form I used some icons as buttons of my user interface in this way:
    ..."skipping code that's not relevant w.r.t to the question.
    SKIP TO LINE myline.
    WRITE AT mycolumn(2) ICON_COLUMN_LEFT AS ICON NO-GAP.
    This allows in my report to use such an expression to associate a dbl click on that icon to a certain block of code:
    AT LINE-SELECTION.
        DATA: FIELD(30).
        GET CURSOR FIELD FIELD.
        IF FIELD = 'ICON_COLUMN_LEFT'.      
           PERFORM myformthatdoessomething.
    I'm wondering if there's a way to associate this behaviour also to a key stroke. For example, pressing the "A" key is equivalent to do a double click on that icon. How can i manage this  ?
    Thanks in advance

    Hi Ravi,
    Ravi,
    Thanks for the response.
    The requirement is :
    When the START OF SELECTION section is executed a write statement displaying the number of incomplete sales Orders is displayed. When you click on that output statement(as in drill down repoting) the code below comes into picture:
    AT LINE-SELECTION.
    PERFORM disp_blkd_bill.
    PERFORM start_of_selection.
    LEAVE SCREEN.
    Now the alv list displays incomplete Sales Orders. The user using the HOTSPOT feature completes/processes the sales Order and wants the ALV report to refresh when she hits the back button and returns to the ALV list which I do so. Now when she again hits the back button she wants to view the updated statement displaying the number of incomplete Sales orders which happens when the routine 'start_of_selection' is excuted again. But then If I do not use the LEAVE SCREEN command it takes her back to the old displaing the previous incomplete number of sales orders and then back to the selection screen. We do not want that old statement to be displayed on the way back to the selection screen.
    Please let me know if you still need further clarifications.
    Thanks,
    ALAM.

  • Trying to save key strokes with a for loop

    I have been trying to action script for years with no
    success. I to some time off and learned javascript and some oop
    (ruby) so I thought I would take another stab at it. I am still
    having problems. Here goes...
    I have several movieclips on the stage that will be set up as
    buttons. They all have the same effects associated with mouseover
    and mouseout so I thought I could save some key strokes with a for
    loop. But I can't get it working right. Could someone tell me what
    I am doing wrong please?
    If anyone can help it would be appreciated.

    kglad,
    Thanks for taking a look. In answer to your question. The
    movie clip instance names are mc_ItemText0 ... mc_ItemText3.
    quote:
    those declarations at the top of your for-loop aren't doing
    anything useful. what are the names of you movieclips that are
    on-stage?
    In reg\ards to the variable declarations, sorry my variable
    names are causing confusion. I use the name "mc" for two different
    variables. Once for the FOR loop and a separate time locally in the
    functions grow and shrink. The ones set for the For loop are used
    in the 'onEvents' at the bottom of the script. Sorry for the
    confusion.
    Because the code works if I take it out of the FOR loop and
    replace the
    's with the numbers that corruspond to the movie clip; I don't
    think the similar names are conflicting because of the scope. To
    make the code more readable and eliminate confusion I have posted
    the code with unique variable names.
    I have searched the forum for FOR loop difficulties and
    found several cases that seemed similar to mine, but I didn't
    understand what was happening.

  • JFormattedTextField consumes Enter Key Stroke

    I'm using Jdk 1.4.2_01, and want to able to process the Enter key stroke on a panel that contains a JFormattedTextField. Unfortunately, according to this Swing bug - http://developer.java.sun.com/developer/bugParade/bugs/4741926.html , JFormattedTextField consumes the Enter Key Stroke.
    This bug has been fixed recently(but in an internal release)
    I really need to be able to process the Enter Key Stroke.
    I couldn't figure out how to implement the workaround that has been posted for the bug.
    Does anyone have any ideas?
    Here is my sample code, that tries to do something on an Enter Key -
    import java.awt.*;
    import java.awt.event.*;
    import javax.swing.*;
    public class TestGui
         public static void main(String args[]) {
              final JFrame f = new JFrame();
              JTextField tf = new JFormattedTextField();
              f.getContentPane().setLayout(new BorderLayout());
              JPanel pnl = new JPanel(new GridLayout(1, 3));
              f.getContentPane().add(pnl, BorderLayout.CENTER);
              pnl.add(tf);
               AbstractAction delegateAction = new AbstractAction() {   
           public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent ae) {       
                JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(f, "ENTER");
              KeyStroke enterKey = KeyStroke.getKeyStroke(KeyEvent.VK_ENTER, 0);
        pnl.getInputMap(JComponent.WHEN_ANCESTOR_OF_FOCUSED_COMPONENT).put(enterKey, "ENTER");
    //  this.getInputMap(JComponent.WHEN_IN_FOCUSED_WINDOW).put(enterKey, "ENTER");
        pnl.getActionMap().put("ENTER", delegateAction);
        f.setSize(100, 100);
        f.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.DISPOSE_ON_CLOSE);
        f.setVisible(true);
    }

    So what is wrong with overriding the processKeyBinding
    method.... Nothing - I couldn't figure out what code I should write in that method - the bug workaround in the bug database says "We could override method processKeyBinding() at JFormattedTextField
    to return false for Escape and Enter if the text and value wasn't changed and it is not edited." - My question was how do we know if the text & value weren't changed & that it is not edited.
    I personally stay away from using
    JFormattedTextField (and input verifier)Yes, I dislike these too, but I'm forced to use the JFormattedTextField. Although, I found the input verifier of not much use - I ended up writing my own stuff for input verification
    because I find it easier to do my own formatting and inputverification and overriding processKeyBinding comes in
    handy in these situations.How did you manage to avoid using a JFormattedTextField? I am using a MaskFormatter for phones, and the caret nicely jumps over the "(" and the "-". Were you able to do this without using JFormattedTextField? Can you please post the code for your formatting text field?

  • Shell extensions and key stroke capturing...

    Hello. Me and my team are working on a project which converts English input from a QWERTY keyboard to Unicodes local Indian languages like Kannada, Tamil etc. We're using Java and SWT for UI. The program should run in such a way that once the program is running, wherever the user enters, he should be able to see the unicodes/indian language output. That is, the program should be a shell extension or a it must run in the background and capture the keystrokes of the active window the user is using. We are developing this software for both windows and linux. So is it possible to create shell extensions or implement the background window(process)?
    Are there APIs in linux to capture key strokes?? Is it possible to use Win32 WinHooks in windows to capture the key strokes??
    Edited by: abhinav_zoso on Jan 8, 2009 11:35 PM

    Are there APIs in linux to capture key strokes?? Is it possible to use Win32 WinHooks in windows to capture the key strokes??Those are not java questions. Programming forums specific to the OS will provide the answer. Or docs for that matter.
    ... which converts English input from a QWERTY keyboard to Unicodes local Indian languagesThat by itself doesn't make much sense unless you are talking about language translation rather than characters.
    The ASCII code set which would normally represent the entire english character set, is part of unicode. So no conversion needed.
    But perhaps you merely wish to map set of keystrokes into other characters? I would strongly suppose that at least windows already supports this in some format so I am not sure why you need java in the mix. Certainly, for example, if you had a computer set up to display another language character set and you want to put a key stroke interceptor in place that should be possible. And if the computer is not set up to display the language then what is the point?

  • Key-stroke combination to copy the text of a document position to another p

    Hello ,
    I would like to Know the way to copy the text of a document position to another document positions.
    I know that you can entry the character + , but I think that there is another way , a Key-stroke combination , could somebody give me some information about this ?
    Best Regards
    Olga

    Hello Olga,
    Unfortunately I believe that it is no other way in the screen directly, only the one mentioned by you.
    You can try use substitution (OB28) but then I am not sure if there is one logic that will work for all documents, like for example copy from line one to all other lines, maybe you can define an exit in the substituion.
    I hope it helps.
    Best Regards,

  • Multiple key strokes in editable JComboBox for sorting

    I want to sort values of JComboBox based on key strokes in the combo. By default, JComboBox traps only one character "public int selectionForKey(char aKey,ComboBoxModel aModel)". I want to have this behaviour based on multiple character typed, e.g.
    Combo has following values:
    South - Ana
    Scotland - Ana
    Scotland - DTT
    SuperMacro
    My requirement is if the user types S, then the values should be sorted by S, if the user types C after S, then the values should be sorted by SC, if the user types O after S, then the values should be sorted by SO.
