Navigating slideshow with keyboard arrow?

Why is this not the default? Is there a way to make it happen? I don't see it in the controls. My client wants his site visitors to be able to flip through several slideshow-created galleries using just the keyboard left and right arrows. This seems like it should be available.

Another quick point to mention is that if instead you wish to remap that to another set of keys such WASD or map them to soft screen buttons (that reside in a different layer to the slideshow or whatever!) - the code for this widget is very short and easy to replicate. As isn't immediately obvious what freeware license widget is released under won't post code here, but find it as follows:
1. place widget onto new blank page in blank new website
2. Preview page in browser
3. In chrome, right click and select inspect element (use similar function in your browser of choice if not chrome)
4. script is 6 lines under 
7. Replace keycode 37 and 39 which are left and right respectively with your keycode for your key you wish from Javascript Char Codes (Key Codes) - Cambia Research
8. paste code as html snippet With:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.11.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script>
//YOUR SNIPPET OF CODE GOES HERE (ANY JAVASCRIPT/JQUERY - GRAB SOME FROM STACKOVERFLOW OR WHEREVER/AS MENTIONED EARLIER)
</script>
</head>
</html>
9. test it!
Hope that is useful in general

Navigating Flash with Keyboard Arrows

Hi,
I have a relatively simple request and I hope someone can help.
I need a flash file that plays 5 seperate movie clips in order and can be navitated using keyboard right and level arrows.
1. Flash File opens and stops
2. Keyboard right plays movie clip 1
3. Keyboard right again plays movie clip 2
However
3. Keyboard left jumps back and plays movie clip 1
I know this may seem simple, but Im new to flash and getting my head around action script and code snippets.
Thanks, in advance.
Chris.

I actually get this error
TypeError: Error #1010: A term is undefined and has no properties.
at Untitled_fla::MainTimeline/keydownF()
This is the code Im using and all my movie clips are named film1, film2 etc
/* Stop a Movie Clip
Stops the specified movie clip on stage.
Instructions:
1. Use this code for movie clips that are currently playing.
film2.stop();
film1.stop();
var nextFilmNum:int=-1;
var totalFilms:int = 2
stage.addEventListener(KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN,keydownF);
function keydownF(event:KeyboardEvent):void {
    switch (event.keyCode) {
        case 37 :
            if(nextFilmNum==-1){
                nextFilmNum=2;
                break;
            nextFilmNum=(totalFilms-1+nextFilmNum)%totalFilms
            break;
        case 39 :

Can't nudge selected items with keyboard arrows

When I select an object or layer and try to nudge the
selection around with the arrow keys, I get no response.
I searched the preferences and can't find this to be a
setting, and I trashed my preferences file figuring this can't be
default behavior - but it appears to be.
I just tested this in Fireworks 8 and CS3 (Mac). It works in
8 but not in CS3.
Help?

I've been having the same issue with CS6 12.0.1.274
It's maddening. Like sometimes the keyboard doesn't work. The same thing happens with mouseclicks trying to select an object. I have to click numerous times to get a selected object.
This isn't just a time lag or memory issue. I literally can't get an object by clicking and then arbitrarily sometimes I can after a few clicks. The arrow and shift keys are randomly not working at all either!!
Buh!
OSX Lion Macbook Pro 8Gb RAM and an i7 processor. I don't have any similar issues in any other program.

Direct selection - moving anchor points with keyboard arrow keys

Hi,
I am using Illustrator CC. I just used the image trace tool to create a vector version of my company logo. It worked pretty well, but I am now just trying to clean it up a bit. I have a few anchor points that I just want to nudge up or down in the smallest increment possible.
I think it would be easier for me to do this using the keyboard arrow keys rather than using the mouse, but the arrow keys cause my selected anchor point to jump by way too large of a distance. I checked to make sure Smart Guides, Snap to Grid, and Snap to Point are all turned off. I can't think of anything else to do.
Can anyone tell me what controls how far the keyboard arrow keys will move an anchor point, and how I can set this to the smallest possible distance?
Thanks in advance,
Paul

Under Preferences (Command-K on Mac), on the first screen there is Keyboard Increment. This is the amount the arrow keys will move selected content, such as anchor points.
I usually keep this at "0.005 in", but when doing things that need extreme accuracy, I change it to "0.0002 in", which on my screen (2560 x 1600) is one pixel at AI's 6400% magnification.

Navigating timeline with Keyboard

I have FCS 5.1.4 and for some reason I can't move the position indicator in the timeline by typing in the number of seconds and frames (+15, -105, etc.) ! Is there a setting in Final Cut that prevents this feature from being used? I'm using an apple wireless keyboard and tried using the keypad as well as the numbers above the qwerty keys...

I'm not able to replicate the behavior.
Have you tried trashing your preferences?
Most here suggest FCP Attic
http://www.chesa.com/pro/
I've used FCP Rescue in the past, but am not sure if it works on FCS 5.1.4
You might try a search of this forum for 'trash preferences in fcs 5 1.4', for more info.

EDIT, I'm not on a wireless keyboard though, so there could be other issues...hopefully others will chime in.

Navigating through iTunes browser with keyboard problem

It used to be that if I clicked in the Artists browser window and typed PAT, the window would scroll down to Patricia Kass. This is no longer the case. The strange thing is that it does this (or does not) on both computers of mine (G4 MDD and 12" PB). So it is probably due to something I installed. I tried a little bit of everything: repairing permissions, creating a new user account, deleting preferences, deleting additional pref panes… with no success. Keyboard navigating through a finder window works perfectly. Anywhere else to look? Or should I just buy a new Mac Pro? Thanks for any help!

If you are on the iphone there is a blue "app store" and a purple "itunes app" They are completely separate from each other, so if you are looking for music in the app store thats your problem. If you are in itunes on your mac or pc then there should be there should be a yellow area at the top with an apple logo in it, literally right beneath that there is a bar with two arrows, a home icon, and what probably says app store. Click on the home icon and you should be back to the main itunes store. Hope this helps.

TS1381 My left arrow does not work on my macbook pro(model A1226). I have reset nvram, performed a safe boot, pulled the cache to desktop, replaced .globalpreference.plist, test all other keys with keyboard view (all others work) - HELP!!

My left arrow does not work on my macbook pro(model A1226).
I have reset nvram, performed a safe boot, pulled the cache to desktop, replaced .globalpreference.plist, & tested all other keys with "keyboard viewer" (all other keys work except for the arrow).
In addition, I have gone thru all the recommended checks with universal access and have booted from snow leopard dvd and the left arrow still does not work.
I have tried using the left arrow key in all of applications I use such as: excel, ms word, address book, calendar, iphoto, terminal, & highlighting an icon and using the arrows to move to another selected icon.
Here is the kicker! In addition, I purchased a logitech solar bluetooth keyboard and the arrows work fine with my ipad but do not work when paired with the macbook pro. All other keys work fine on the macbook pro using the bluetooth keyboard.
I believe this says that the problem is not in my macbook pro keyboard. So where can it be?
Can anyone think of any other rabbit holes I can search?
thanks and regards

I would also like to add that I've reverted the two cd drive and hard drive mods I did and the laptop is back to factory hardware and there is 0 corrosion or mold visible.

When I use my Delete key to delete a song, I get a pop-up. This is OK, except the Keep File button is defaulted and I cannot tab or arrow to the "Move to Trash" button, and so i need to use my mouse. How can I do this only with keyboard?

When using iTunes on my iMac, I use my Delete key to delete a song and I get a pop-up. This is OK, except the Keep File button is defaulted and I cannot tab or arrow to the "Move to Trash" (or Cancel) button, and so I need to use my mouse. How can I do this only with keyboard?

Huh.. Interesting. I went back to check these proceedures and found there is a difference between using the return key or the space bar as the action command.
tabbing the blue ring moves the selection and then spacebar takes that action. The return key takes action of only the blue collored button.

Spry Image Slideshow with Filmstrip IE8 Play/Back/Forward Arrows Problem

Please help me. I'm using the Spry Image Slideshow with Filmstrip widget on my web page: http://new.radcal.com/accugold2.html#sensoroptabs. In Firefox, Safari, Internet Explorer 9 it displays properly but in Internet Explorer 8 the gray Play/Back/Forward Arrows automatically appear on the Viewport (main large slide area) when the page loads and they do not go away, ever. Whereas in the other browsers these arrows only show up when I move my mouse into the viewport area and go away as soon as I take my mouse off the viewport area.
I need the arrows to behave in IE8 like they do in IE9, Firefox, etc. I do not know javascript but I imagine there is some javascript code that could solve this problem. Does anyone know of a solution? Please help me...

At the top of your document you have

When you installed iOS 8 did you read about the new features? Applications can create custom keyboards…

You need to look for an app that has a custom keyboard with the features you require, I suggest you find one without CAPSLOCK

Again you need to look at how to manage the device - these settings can be turned off already & you can edit the 'suggestions' too.

Sadly you cannot disable autocorrect temporarily, so it's all or nothing.

Dreamweaver CC crashes when moving a DIV field with the keyboard arrows.

I'm really fond of the new Dreamweaver CC, but on some occasions, it crashes when moving a DIV field with the keyboard arrows, for example, to move it two or three pixels.
This is happening on a recent pc (i5 / 16Gb ram / Intel SSD / Bootcamped Windows 8 x64)
F12 is also really slow when publishing via Chrome. Firefox or Internet Explorer is faster.
Is there a fix for these issues?
Thanks,
D

Apart from the FluidGrid Layouts feature, DW is not a click and drag app like Photoshop or Muse. You should be using the CSS panels to align elements with floats, margins and padding.
Keep Chrome open and refresh browser (F5).

Tips for faster navigation with keyboard?

I've spent a bunch of time learning Aperture 3 this week, and much of it is starting to make sense.
One thing, however, still stumps me:
How do you quickly navigate with the keyboard among pictures, views, and projects?
I have carefully studied the "Aperture 3 Keyboard Shortcuts" help file, trying all the keystrokes listed, so far no luck. Because Aperture is targeted at professionals who deal with LARGE numbers of images and want to do it quickly and easily, I figure I must just be missing some key concepts or tricks.
EXAMPLE: in iPhoto, from the top level Events screen, you can:
1. move the highlight around with the keyboard ARROW keys to select an event,
2. press RETURN key to enter the event,
3. select a picture with the ARROW keys,
4a. press RETURN to maximize the picture within the iPhoto window,
4b. or OPTIONCOMMANDF to show that picture fullscreen.
Quickly getting back to the main Events page is super fast: just press the ESCape key twice.
In Aperture, I can't figure out the equivalent way of quickly drilling down into Projects, maximizing pictures, then retreating back to the top level Projects view. Perhaps I'm just not grokking The Aperture Way of doing things.
As far as I can tell, it requires:
1. Double-clicking with the MOUSE on a Project (keyboard presses just cause the error beep)
2. Move the highlight with the ARROW keys, just like iPhoto.
3a. Press the V key two times to maximize the picture within the Aperture window, or
3b. Press F to switch to Fullscreen Browser
3c. then V to switch to Fullscreen Viewer of the maximized image.
To get back to the list of Projects, instead of just hitting the ESCape key twice, I have to:
1. Press V to switch back from Viewer to Browser
2. Press F to cancel Fullscreen mode
3. Switch from keyboard to MOUSE, click on Projects left-arrow button at top left of window.
It doesn't sound like a lot of extra steps, but I'm always drilling down into Projects/Events, looking at images, then coming back up to the top level to drill down into a different Project/Event. Because Aperture appears to require extra transitional steps, I'm finding it generally slower and more awkward than iPhoto for the thing I do the most.
I hope I'm just not understanding the right way of doing things.
Suggestions?

How can I make my slideshow respond to keyboard arrow keys?

Hello,
I think I actually got the question to say it all.
A lot of time you run across a slide show and you can use your keyboard arrow keys to move through the slideshow.
Sometimes you have to click on the slide show once to get this interactivity.
Can Muse widget slideshows be made to do this or must I click on the slideshow arrows to move through the show?

The feature isn't supported at this time. Feel free to submit it as an idea though - http://forums.adobe.com/community/muse/ideas
The available keyboard shortcuts can be found here.

How do I scroll more than one line at a time in Firefox 4? Scrolling with down-up keyboard arrows is much faster in IE/Chrome.

I have tried using about:config options mousewheel.withnokey.sysnumlines > false and custom set mousewheel.withnokey.numlines, but it makes a difference only when I use a mouse, which I don't use most of the time on this laptop. I use down/up keyboard errors to scroll, and the page scrolls one-line-at-a-time, very slow and lagging. Is there a way around this?
I have reinstalled Chrome as secondary browser only because of this, FF4 otherwise really kicksass. Thank you for an amazing browser and any feedback on my issue.

Well I am using those, but it is not very practical. What puzzles me is that only Firefox has this behaviour, I have tried last versions of IE, Chrome, Opera - all three scroll much faster than Firefox 4 using down/up keyboard arrows.
Thanks for the reply, I really hope to get a solution to this.

Safari/ Search Box/ Keyboard Arrows

It seems the last 10.5 update changed Safari's functionality with the keyboard arrows... Previously these arrows worked as they do in most text applications which speeds up navigation through text. Presently use of keyboard arrows inside the Search box of Safari will instead jump into a menu of recent user searches....
Is there a way to revert to the ordinary use of keyboard-arrows?
Is there a way to deactivate menu jumping?
Thanks for any insight.

It seems then the only answer is to stop using built-in-google search and instead make a preferred book mark (on safari Bar) for a search engine which allows standard text-uses during searches.
Not sure which other search engines are worthy--
Unfortunately it would seem that it is "google. com" which has deactivated normal text uses of the arrow keys-- In that bookmarking "google.com" operates the same, skewed way, regarding key-bord arrows.
