Keyboard shortcut for 'replace document colours?

(I'm on windows 7 with acrobat 9 from cs5)
Hi all, I recently discovered the 'replace document colors' option in the accessibility preferences.
What I would like to know (and/or request if it isn't already available) is if there is a keyboard shortcut to quickly switch this preference on/off? Or, is there a way to script something like this to add it in?
If there was a toolbar button, or keyboard shortcut to go with the other accessibility shortcuts, this feature would be even better. My thought is that you would set your colour preferences for background/text and then use the shortcut to quickly enable or disable the custom colors as needed (similar to web browsers and their custom style sheets).

There isn't.

Keyboard shortcut for Compare Documents (or configurable keyboard shortcuts)

Hi,
I'm guessing the ability to configure Keyboard Shortcuts as one can in other Adobe applications is coming soon to Acrobat (the software release cycles haven't quite synched up yet), but if there are no plans for this, I would appreciate a Keyboard Shortcut for a function I use very frequently: Compare Documents.
Thanks much,
Adam

If you go to system prefs - keyboard & mouse - keyboard shortcuts you can set a shortcut for anything that is in the mail menus.
click the + at bottom left to add one, select mail from the applications drop down, then type in the exact name of the mail menu item you want a shortcut for eg :Add Hyperlink . Then find a shortcut combo that isn't in use by something else & there you are.
I prefer the edit link, so's you get a neat link, rather than the (sometimes) 3 line url.
checking the way mail works while interested in another post

we've noticed that mail doesn't send rtf that outlook on an exchange server likes
unless you not only enable rtf, but also actually make some alteration that really requires rtf. That's to say a different font,a larger font, italics, a signature in italics, a colour etc.
The fact that your composed message displays in arial 48pt (for example) doesn't cut it - it'll still be sent as plain unless you do one of the above. Making a change & reversing it works too.

Keyboard shortcut for the Document Folder in file open/save dialog

Does anyone know if there exists a keyboard shortcut for Document Folder in the File Save/Open Dialog? <command><shift>O works in the Finder. I tried variations of that in the dialog and didn't find any. <command>D takes you to the desktop. I tried other variations surrounding that to get to the Document Folder and didn't find any.
Anyone? Bueller?

Keyboard shortcut for moving documents?

Hi all,
Potentially a long shot, but was wondering if a keyboard shortcut exists to move documents into a folder on my computer?
Files downloaded get save to my Desktop and I sort into folders from there, and was wondering if there was a way to make this process easier - e.g. like sorting emails in an email inbox into a folder.
Any suggestions appreciated.
Thanks much,
Ryan

Welcome to the forum.
Neale has given you the "trick," that you need. Just do not forget to hit the S key again, to toggle Snap back on, when you go to do other editing, or things will not work as before.
Good luck,
Hunt

Numbers - keyboard shortcut for fill cell colour?

Hi there,
just as the title says, speed up workflow by a shortcut just to fill a cell with a certain colour?

This is not a feature of Numbers. I would probably set the color in a cell of a dummy table, then copy and paste as needed.

How do I change the keyboard shortcut for Cycle through open documents in PS CC for Mac?

Sorry to bug the community with such a seemingly inconsequential task, but I am seriously tired of using the awkward default keyboard shortcut for cycling through open docs in PS. I'd like to change it to what I am used in in Chrome, which is Cmd+Option+[left] or {right} arrow keys. I noticed this is not a command listed in the in keyboard shortcuts, for whatever reason. Where on Earth can I change this?
If it is not possible to do it by default, is there a plug-in or a change to the code that will allow this basic functionality?
Thanks again guys and gals!

As far as I know, you can't. It's "hard wired" in. Not even Edit > Keyboard Shortcuts is allowed to change it.
However I did find this tip:
Anyway i never found tabs in Adobe application useful, instead i prefer the old school method: simply switch off tabs feature via illustrator/ preferences/ user interface/ open documents as tabs. Then in Mac preferences panel, under keyboard, just search for the “focus on next application window” field (under menu, keyboard and text) and assign a shortcut if the default option doesn't fit you. And there is now you can easily switch between open documents!.
The best part of this is that it can be used in all mac applications, not only Adobe ones. And remember, if you want this working on Indesign, Photoshop, etc be aware of first switch off the tab features so that the system could “see” multiple documents opened not only one single tabbed document.

Keyboard shortcut for switching between documents?

Is there a keyboard shortcut for switching between open documents? That sure would save me a lot of time.

Command + tilde (the key to the left of the number 1
This works to switch between windows in any app.

What is the keyboard shortcut for "delete row" in a table?

What is the keyboard shortcut for "delete row" in a table within a pages document?

Click on the row number to select the entire row. Right-click, and select Delete Row from the menu. There is no keyboard shortcut.

Change keyboard shortcut for "Find"

The default keyboard shortcut for the "find" function is Cmd-Opt-F. As you know, for virtually every other Mac app (if not all Mac apps), the shortcut for "find" is simply Cmd-F. In iTunes, though, Cmd-F turns the visualiser full-screen mode on and off. I never use the visualiser, and decades of Mac use have hard-wired my fingers for Cmd-F to be "find." I know that there is a method in System Preferences by which to change or assign associations between drop-down menu items and keyboard shortcuts, but there is no menu item for "find" so that method seems like a dead end.
Is there a way to replace Cmd-Opt-F with Cmd-F in iTunes?
Help, please!!!

to be quite honest i dont no how exactly to do this,
i just know it can be done. i have had no problem
opening .plist files in vi-make sure you are in root
account for system files.
They (the .plist files) don't seem particularly readable in vi -- they seem to contain a lot of binary content. In earlier versions of OS X they were plain text and easily edited.....
Solaris huh? how powerful
is that? i dont know much about solaris . . . . like
to try it though. recommendations?
It's a more "traditional" Unix, meaning that it's very powerful, fairly bulletproof, very configurable, and pretty obtuse if you're not familiar with it. I like my Mac better!

Keyboard shortcut for printing _current page_ only in Reader 8?

Hi there,
I'm working through a large PDF-file, and need to print individual pages while reading through the whole of this PDF file. I don't think that there is a keyboard shortcut for printing _current page_ only.
I'm aware that CTRL-P gets you to the print menu, but then I always have to opt for clicking on "current page" AND "ok"... With about 50 pages out of a 100-page document this is cumbersome.
If there isn't such a keyboard shortcut, could Adobe consider giving its users the option to customised shortcuts, and implement this option of printing a current page only?
Many thanks,
Pli

no it doesn't
it just changes font size

InDesign Keyboard Shortcut for Submenu Item

I am attempting to make a keyboard shortcut for a particular menu selection in InDesign CS5. Particularly, I want to select an Adobe PDF Preset
("PDF/X-1a:2001") from the submenu. However, when I try select this in Keyboard Shortcuts, all I get is "Define" .. which of couse will bring me to the presets window. I want to be able to select a preset and assign a keyboard shortcut (in this case F15).
Does anyone have suggestions on how this can be done? I tried various ways, but still can't select anything from that submenu.
Thanks.

Hey,
I agree with Cari! Using SHIFT while clicking on PDF preset name would speed up things! On the other hand, you can use scripting to define which export profile to use and choose destination folder. Great thing about the scripts is that you can assign custom shortcuts to them!
// Set PDF Preset name
var myPreset = "[PDF/X-1a:2001]";
// If not using CS5 or later, set this to: false
var usingCS5 = true;
/// --- DO NOT EDIT --- ///
if(app.documents.length)
    doExport();
else
    alert("No documents opened");
function doExport(){
    try{app.pdfExportPresets.item(myPreset).name}
    catch(_){
        alert("PDF Preset not found!\nPlease check name and try again!");
        exit();
    var myFile = (function(){
        var setFile = File.saveDialog ("PDF export based on " + myPreset + " ...", "PDF:*.pdf");
        if(setFile != null)
            return setFile;
        else
            return false;
    if(myFile != false){
        if(Boolean(usingCS5))
            app.activeDocument.asynchronousExportFile (ExportFormat.PDF_TYPE, myFile, false, myPreset);
        else
            app.activeDocument.exportFile (ExportFormat.PDF_TYPE, myFile, false, myPreset);
All you have to set is PDF preset name and you are good to go! Also, you can save this script with different names containing different presets name and assign different shortcuts to every one of them.
Hope that helps.

Keyboard shortcuts for Word compatible accents?

To type the letter ǜ in a Pages document, I press u, then altshiftu and then altshift`, and all looks fine on the screen. However, when I export the document to word, Word usually displays it as u¨`. Word does so even if I select for example Helvetica as font, and Helvetica does contain both the glyph ǜ and the glyph with unicode 0308 which is Combining Diaeresis. If I select Lucida Grande as font, Word tries to produce a correct ǜ, but it is not a pretty sight.
To have a compatible document it seems I need to type unicode 01DC (ǜ), but I have not found any keyboard shortcut for that one. Does anyone know a quicker way to enter it than using the Character Palette?

Magnus,
I guess the best way is to use another keyboard layout (script) for those characters. I don't know the language of these characters, but System Preferences/International/Input Menu provides a list of different scripts to use.
If they don't fit your needs, you could create your own layout: http://scripts.sil.org/cms/scripts/page.php?siteid=nrsi&itemid=ukelele

Photoshop CS5 Keyboard shortcut for 2up view?

In older version, window > arange > tile, gave me side by side tile of windows. In CS5 it defaults to above and below. I know I can simply click the Arange Documents and then 2up but I use this very frequent and would like to have a simple keyboard shortcut for it. Can this default be changed if not...? I can not find the 2up layout item in the keyboard shortcuts and have tried setting up a action but can not seem to get that to work. Can anyone help? I use this all day to compare images and all of my images fit best side by side. Help?

i dont want to use the application frame either just to get 2-up functionality. I dont think users should be forced to use a differnt workspace. the app frame takes up space and doesnt even really work correctly when you move panels around. either way it would be great to have the same view optoins in the menus that are now exclusive to the app frame. if you feel strongly about it - post a request on adobe's new feedback site. this is wehre they are mostly listening to users requests now.

Disabling Keyboard Shortcuts for LDAP Accounts -Workgroup Manager...

I work in a school and all our students are on LDAP accounts. Recently some of the kids realized that hitting Ctrl-Opt-CMD-8 inverts the screen display. You wouldn't believe the amount of havoc this has created at school, especially when they do it to a kid’s account that doesn't know how to fix it.
Keyboard and Mouse are NOT one of the items under preferences for either groups or accounts in Workgroup Manager. Does anyone know if there is a way around this, or an alternate way of getting rid of the keyboard shortcuts for Universal Access, for either groups or accounts?
Thanks
Mac OS X (10.4.6)

Within the Workgroup Manager pane for Preferences, there is an option to manage Universal access. Within that section, there is a tab for 'Options'. You will want to change that management to 'Always' and leave the box for 'Allow Universal Access Shortcuts' UNchecked. This will, in effect, disable the usage of the shortcuts for a User or a selected Group account.
Hope this helps out!!

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.
