[LAVA Cross Post] CTRL+SHIFT+Alpha Shortcuts don't work in LabVIEW

Cross-post from LAVA: http://lavag.org/topic/15619-ctrlshift-shortcuts-sometimes-not-working-in-labview/
Bug Synopsis: CTRL+SHIFT+Alpha shortcuts do not work in LabVIEW. Most notably, CTRL+SHIFT+Z, CTRL+SHIFT+E, and CTRL+SHIFT+S
Test setup: LV2012 32bit with f1 patch running in Win7 64bit inside a Parallels 8 VM in OS X 10.8.1
To summarize the testing I have tried:
Many different LabVIEW, Guest OS, and Host OS combinations all fail, including:
LV2012f1 32 and 64 bit, and LV2009 32 bit
Win7 32 and 64bit, and also WinXP x64
Parallels 7 and Parallels 8
OS X 10.7 and 10.8
Capturing the keyboard by the VM
Twiddling every keyboard setting possible on Parallels, Guest, and Host
Reinstalling keyboard drivers
Plugging in a known-good keyboard that works on a native Windows machine
Deleting LabVIEW.ini and letting it regenerate
Remapping the shortcuts from, e.g., CTRL+SHIFT+E to CTRL+E - in this case, "Show in Project" works, so this might indicate it's a problem registering the shortcut press, not invoking the action itself.
Sending the keystrokes via on-screen keyboards from both Guest and Host
Sending the keystrokes via SendInput from user32.dll WinAPI
Testing every imaginable combo of FN, CONTROL, ALT/OPTION, COMMAND/CMD, SHIFT
Reinstalling VMs from scratch and reinstalling LV
Here's a kicker: CTRL+SHIFT+Alpha shortcuts work fine on other Windows programs (I've tried 4 different programs, including Chrome, Notepad++, Paint.NET), yet it does NOT work for VIPM with CTRL+SHIFT+C. This means that the only two programs where the CTRL+SHIFT+Alpha bugs exist are both LabVIEW-related.
Here's another kicker: It's only CTRL+SHIFT+Alpha shortcuts with the prob - CTRL+SHIFT+3 properly toggles grid alignment, and the "Tools >> Options >> Menu shortcuts" will register any CTRL+SHIFT+Non-alpha shortcut; it just does not respond to the CTRL+SHIFT+Alpha shortcuts.
Any new troubleshooting ideas are highly appreciated; please feel free to jump in here or on LAVA.

[LAVA Cross Post] CTRL+SHIFT+ Shortcuts sometimes not working in LabVIEW

Cross-post from LAVA: http://lavag.org/topic/15619-ctrlshift-shortcuts-sometimes-not-working-in-labview/
See the above post for more information - here's a synopsis:
CTRL+SHIFT modifiers are not working while running LabVIEW in a Parallels 7 virtual machine. This problem affects both LV2011 and LV2012. I'm not certain that this is a LabVIEW bug - could be an issue with my virtual machine environment or it's configuration - except that CTRL+SHIFT modifiers work in other applications on the affected VMs. It's just LabVIEW that appears to ignore shortcuts with the CTRL+SHIFT modifiers.
Any ideas?

The Ctrl+Alt+C shortcut isn't working in InDesign CS6.

The Ctrl+Alt+C shortcut isn't working in InDesign CS6. I don't have a ATI video card, so the hotkey it's not binded to the Catalyst Center.
I own a Nvidia GeForce GTX 980 video card and I have reinstalled Windows 7 x64 three weeks ago. Since then, the Ctrl+Alt+C shortcut isn't working.
I tried to reinstall the program. I tried to clean the preferences file. Still, nothing helped. I googled if there are any other programs that could take the shortcut to themselves. The InDesign menu says that the Ctrl+Alt+C is binded to the "Fit Object" action. But nothing happens.
If you have any suggestions on what should I do to repair this, please help.
P.S.: before the reinstall, everything worked just fine.
MB: ASUS P8Z77-V Deluxe
CPU: Intel® Core™ i7-3770 3.4GHz
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 980

No. But I think I figured it out somehow.
I just reinstalled the InDesign CS6 from scratch, as mentioned in the post above. Everything as new as possible. And it still had problems. Then I disabled two things from autostarting:
Broadcom 802.11 Network Adapter Wireless Network Tray Applet
and
Logitech SetPoint driver.
After that, everything went back to normal.
I assume one of them had grabbed the hotkey without mentioning it, so that must have been the fault. I don't think that other programs (other than Adobe's) have the same key bindings as InDesign.
P.S.: Just restarted each disabled program and it's the Broadcom 802.11 Network Adapter Wireless Network Tray Applet that shows issues with the keys.
So, thanks for trying to help me fix my problem.
If anybody else have troubles with the keys and they have this specific tray applet running, better disable it to be sure. In Windows Task Manager it is called WLTRAY.EXE.

Lenovo Energy Management broken under Windows 8 - Shortcuts don't work

I've noticed that the Energy Management tool does not work properly under Windows 8 on a U300S.
Especially stuff like the keyboard shortcuts don't work:
Pressing F7 to toggle the wireless and bluetooth settings doesn't bring up the usual onscreen-menu like it does in Windows 7
The buttons to toggle the display brightness bring up the Windows 8 style brightness indicator but doesn't work.

Anyone?

Why am I unable to use Ctrl+Shift keyboard shortcuts in the Kotoeri input method on OS X 10.9?

For some reason I'm unable to switch from Hiragana to Katakana and vice versa using the Ctrl+Shift+K and Ctrl+Shift+H keyboard shortcuts when using the Kotoeri IME. The shortcuts appear in the IME menu in the menubar.
Have these shortcuts been changed in OS X Mavericks and the menu not updated, or does the menu not actively reflect the current keyboard shortcut settings? I'm using OS X 10.9.1 (if that helps at all).
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks for the hint! I hadn't realized that Xcode 5.1.1 was so huge (2.18Gb) and assumed after an hour that the installation had frozen.

Ctrl-Shift Keyboard Shortcuts Broken

Hello
I switch layout with Ctrl+Shift. And have a little trouble. When i try:
Reopen recent tab in Chrome/Firefox (Ctrl+Shift+T)
Select previous tab in Chrome/Firefox (Ctrl+Shift+Tab)
I get just new tab in the first case, and select next tab in the second. This changes the layout. So, performs the action, as if the Shift key not pressed.
Looking for a solution I found that this is common problem. Not only for browsers... ( http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5592 … -linux-kde )
I found similar topic https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1352640 and read this --> https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ke … on_in_Xorg . But solution don't found.
Someone can help? I don't want change to Alt+Shift switch layout.
P.S. I using Awesome WM

May be it is too late, but this topic is at top of google...any way
here is russian link:

in short, you must get sources of xserver by using abs, save there patch file from article, modify PKGBUILD to apply this patch.
Reason is, xserver switches keyboard "onkeypress" while it should do "onkeyrelease". This bug is mentioned in 2006 and not fixed since that because it will lead to change xserver's specs.
P.S. patch in article is for 1.12.xx, but it worked with 1.16.1 for me.

Ctrl Shift Left, Ctrl Shift Right shortcuts broken in GMail compose box

When composing a GMail message in Firefox, selecting a word at a time with ctrl-shift-left arrow or ctrl-shift-right arrow stopped working in the compose textarea. (The key combination does nothing now. Without the ctrl, shift-arrow still selects a letter at a time.)
This was broken a long time ago, then fixed somewhere in the last few months. Now in 3.6.12 it's broken again.
This works fine in Chrome 6,7 and 8, as well as IE.

You're welcome and thanks for posting the outcome of your 'hunt' for the culprit.

Keyboard shortcuts don't working.

I used to my keyboard shortcuts at my mac, iphone and ipad bur my mac book don't work any more with this shortcuts. All my settings are ok on my iphone and ipad but it don't syncronize.
Some onde can help me with this?

Your user account is not named Administrator, though, is it? You probably don't have the built-in Administrator account turned on (it's off by default). See Built-in Administrator Account - Enable or Disable - Windows 7 Help Forums and Elevated Command Prompt - Windows 7 Help Forums for directions on how to turn this account on and off.
Before you do that, though, you can try some other things. Go to your current user account, as directed in the previous post, and rename the two Adobe folders, reboot and restart ID. New folders should be created, and hopefully the permissions will be correct. If the shortcuts still are not there.
If that doesn't work, delete or rename the new Adobe folders created in the previous attempt, go to Users in Control Panel and create a new user account with and make it an administrator, then log on with that account and start InDesign. If the shortcuts work, copy the Adobe folders to your original user account.
Still not working? Make sure you are logged in on your regular account. On each of the two Adobe folders in your user profile right-click and choose Properties, then the Security tab. Verify that your user and System both have full control.
Still not working? Time to activate the Administrator Account.
Set a Restore Point before you do any of this stuff, just in case....

Photoshop CC 2013 and OS X Yosemite - Lag, Shortcuts Don't Work

I don't have a regular Creative Cloud account. The version of Creative Cloud 2013 master collection is installed on my computer, and it can't be updated because it's not a Team CC account. The collection was provided from my work.
The Version I have is Photoshop CC 14.2.1 x64
Anyways, the big problems I am having is lagging on Photoshop are: Shortcuts are barely working.
Can't press the "UNDO" shortcut, have to use Drop down menu at the top of my computer.
Spot Healing Brush is lagging when I go over something it leaves a dark mark, and when I click it again then it goes away
The shortcut to zoom in or zoom out it doesn't go for like 20 seconds
Any of the brush tools when I try to enlarge or make smaller using the shortcut key [ or ] it won't work.
I knew I shouldn't have updated to Yosemite and deeply regretting it right now.
Does anyone have any solutions to my problem??

Installing the WhiteWindowWorkaround plugin may help that issue: Menus, shortcuts, Lasso tool, or Photoshop stop working ...

I'm using kdm, kde. Even at kdm (before login), these keystrokes does not work. So, I think that the problem is with some wrong configuration with X, but I don't know.
I don't understood your second question 'show us where that keystroke is defined'. These keystrokes are pressed in KDM or KDE and don't work.

Illustrator CS5 shortcuts - don´t work

Hi everyone,
after upgrading to CS5 on my work Mac, all of my favourite keyboard shortcuts (which are not custom) seems not to work. Here are the basics functions I´m missing:
cmd+space = ZOOM IN
tab when resizing objects = keeps the aspect ratio/proportions og the object
holding alt then dragging objects = duplicate them
These are very important funtions for me, but they don´t work for some reason. Scaling objects and keeping the same proportions is now a much longer process than I am used to.
Would be glad if someone have a solution to this problem. The shortcuts are not listet in the properties, so I don´t know where to find them either.
Best regards from Norway!

I have investigated this problem some more, after finding out thru this forum at it's caused by some interferance with other software/plugins. I now have everything going as usual, that includes iTunes and Firefox, but I have not installed the Delicious plugin for Firefox - and it seems to work. I have not experienced the problem thru the last days, which is very unusual in the positive manner .
The solution must be that if you have this problem or similar problems, it's probably caused by other software. try closing on by one, and restart CS4/5. Sort out which software is causing the problem.
Weird think is that on my home computer, also an iMac with the exact same configuration as my work computer, this problem does not appear with any software installed. I have all plugins running in Firefox at all time, and every software is exactly the same as work...
Thanks!

Hi guys, Having a problem with emoji. I have the emoji on my dock which I found a shortcut on Cult of the Mac. I click on the emoji and drag it to my email or whatever, and it will not drop into place. There is a blue square. Other shortcuts don't work.

Hi Guys,
Having problem with emoji, I have the character palette shortcut on my dock which I found through article from Cult of the Mac. I click on the emoticon and drag it to my email or whatever and get a blue box - no emoji. I tried the keyboard shortcut - doesn't work. I tried the drop down the menu in edit - doesn't work either. I am running Lion and want to upgrade to Mountain Lion. Want to fix this before I upgrade or should I just upgrade and hope for the best? Been all over the net looking for solution.
Thanks for your help,
blueheron11

Pages does not support the Apple font used for color emoji, so that behavior is normal.
With what app are you reading the yahoo mail? There is really no guarantee than any other email service will show the special Apple font involved.
You should have no problem putting emoji directly into Mail or Text edit via drag drop from the Character Viewer as shown below.
You should also be able to upload graphics here easily by clicking on the camera icon. My email is tom at bluesky dot org.

Illustrator Zoom and Grabber Hand shortcuts don't work

Hi There,
This morning I opened Illustrator and some of the keyboard shortcuts had stopped working - specifically:
Spacebar = Grabber Hand
Zoom In = Command Spacebar
Zoom Out = Command Option Spacebar
Is there a way to reset this to make these work again?
Also, if there's a shortcut or key combination that changed the defaults in the first place, is there a way to turn it off?
Any help would be much appreciated.
Cheers

When shortcuts stop working it's generally due to some third party application which has commandeered the shortcuts and refuses to let them go. Common culprits are Microsoft applications, Intuit applications, and some VPN applications. Make certain, if you are running any of this software, you've updated tot eh latest versions. You can test this by simply restarting the system. If the Illustrator shortcuts work after a reboot, then you absolutely have an issue with some third party application.
