Numeric trimming without a number pad?

Hi All,
Long time FCP editor getting up to speed on PPRo Cs 6.02. I use the thin Mac Bluetooth keyboard and do not have a numeric keypad. It's very important for me to use numeric trimming and moving for clips in the timeline. Is there a way to reassign the numeric keypad trimming keys? Where are they located in the keyboard shortcuts?
I know I can buy a different keyboard but not really an option right now, the regular numbers always worked for this in FCP.  Please help!
Thank you,
Keith

I know, but I dont want to buy one. There has to be a way to do this, especially for laptop users.

  • Number pad control

    I was wondering if anybody knew how or has a good numeric pad control or vi. I have a HMI and i need to put up a number pad and haven't quite figured it out. Thanks

    Well, that makes it even easier. I've done this both with and without an event structure and am regularly using the more recent version (the one with events).
    Build the VI using events to get the key presses and build the string. Once you click your final OK button the string is output through the connector pane to the calling VI. Then you can use this subVI in as many places as you like. If you set the VI to show its FP when called and to be modal the user will have to get rid of this dialog before doing other things.
    I would also suggest adding a Cancel and Backspace buttons to your keypad. It is my experience that they can be helpful.
    To learn more about LabVIEW, I suggest you try searching this site and google for LabVIEW tutorials. Here and here are a couple you can start with and here are some tutorial videos. You can also contact your local NI office and join one of their courses.
    In addition, I suggest you read the LabVIEW style guide and the LabVIEW user manual (Help>>Search the LabVIEW Bookshelf).

  • How to get the day as numeric value without formatting the date?

    Hello,
    to reduce the costs of a sql-statement I need to get the day of a date-value as number (to compare it to a numeric value) without any formatting. Every formatting results in a full table scan of the table with the date field. Is there any function to solve this problem?
    Oracle version is 11g.
    Thanks Carsten

    and to_number(to_char(T2.Date2,'DD')) = 1
    and T2.Inactive = 0
    The explain plan shows a full table scan on T2. With EXTRACT(DAY FROM T2.Date2) there is no difference.It probably would and should in any case.
    Look at your predicates, which of them would reduce the resultset to a fair size compared to the total number of records in the table?.
    - You may have a huge number of records when you say date less than
    - Of these perhaps one seventh have day = 1
    - My guess is that most have Inactive = 0
    Besides, you should not rely on implictit char to date conversion, always use TO_DATE
    How many records are in the table? - How many will that query return?

  • BUG: Ctrl+Alt+ number to switch modules only works with number pad

    Really annoying, since this worked nicely in the beta. If, for example, you hold down Ctrl+Alt+1 (pressing 1 on the top row of the keyboard) to switch to the Library Module, it doesn't work. If you use 1 on the numeric keypad, it works fine. What's the big deal, you ask? Well, try using the number pad on a laptop - you either get to use the number keys or the regular keys, so this shortcut is essentially useless on anything other than a full-size keyboard.

    Windows treats Ctrl + Alt shortcuts as special. They are used as hotkeys for desktop icons, and if a key is used for that purpose, it overrides any use within a program. I did a little research, and setting a desktop hotkey to 3 will cause your LR symptoms, where you can't used the normal numbers and have to use the keypad to switch modules. On the other hand, you'd probably be seeing the effect of using the non-number-pad keys (they'd launch a program), so it's a mystery.
    In my testing, I noticed that the Firefox browser uses that key combination to switch between its tabbed sessions. If you're running that program, you could test to see if it exhibits the same symptoms.

    Did this issue with the numeric keypad, just start recently?
    Did you download or install, new drivers, or do any system updates recently that seem to coincide with when it first occurred? If so, then a possible quick fix is a System Restore to a point before it first occurred.Using Microsoft System Restore (Windows 7)

  • Qosmio x500/02G Number Pad Not Working

    Hello,
    I have a x500 that i recently purchased and installed Windows 7 Professional on it. Now i cannot use the number pad on the right hand side of the keyboard.
    I've tried using various combinations of NUMLOCK and SCROLLLOCK to no avail. Surely there a seperate number pad doesn't require drivers?!

    The problem was a faulty keyboard. there was a bank of keys on the numeric pad that were non-functional.
    A bit dissapointing given i'd had the laptop for less than 24 hours. Took it back to the store for a replacement.

  • Can't get my number pad to work - No Num Lock

    Hello,
    I recently got my iMac with the wireless keyboard and noticed that I can not get my number pad to work. There is no num lock button to turn on/off, just the clear button. Can someone help me figure this out? Thanks
    Jay

    This is from the built-in Mac Help.
    Hope it works for you.
    My numeric keypad doesn't work
    The way the numeric keypad works depends on your computer, the keyboard you're using, the application you're working in, and whether the Num Lock key is engaged. Usually, the numeric keypad is used to enter numbers in a document, but in some applications you might be able to use the keypad to navigate (move around in) your document.
    Press the Num Lock key to switch between the ways the numeric keypad functions.
    If you have a separate numeric keypad on your keyboard, the Num Lock key is located in the numeric keypad. If you're using a portable computer, the Num Lock is a function key, marked Num Lock (F6). If your keyboard has a separate keypad but no Num Lock key, try pressing Shift-Clear.
    Most portables have a group of keys on the keyboard that can function as the numeric keypad. To find the keypad, look for small numbers or symbols in the lower-right corner of keys on the right side of your keyboard. Press the Num Lock key (F6) to turn on the keypad. The green light glows on the Num Lock key when the keypad is active.

  • Extending F-Keys - is there a F-Key number pad?

    I have the wireless apple keyboard which only has twelve f-keys. Does anyone know of a device like a number pad that would add some additional F-keys which I could assign actions to?
    Please don't suggest the following - I am aware of these options and they don't resolve a very specific issue/workflow I am trying to enable.
    1) just use the fully apple keyboard that have extended F keys
    2) use modifier keys for your F keys for addition functions
    I have tons of quick keys that I use across the OS, and across apps, and I am trying to find single key presses (without modifiers) that I can press to increase functionality and apple's multipurpose Fkey option makes my goals difficult?
    Any suggestions? I love the wireless keyboard, but I just want to be able to add additional keys.
    Thanks!

    Check out the Belkin Nostromo N52... It's designed as a gaming input device, but it should suit your needs nicely. It has 14 keys (all programmable, even macros) as well as a scroll wheel, 8-way D-pad, and several other buttons.
    I'm 99% sure they have OSX drivers for it...
    Saitek makes something similar as well, but I don't know about OSX compatibility...

  • Wireless keyboard number pad not working

    I purchased a wireless keyboard about 4 months ago and realized about a month ago the 9 digit number pad on the right stopped working. Every other button still works just not 1-9. Is there a number lock button that I may have pushed???

  • HP DV9291ea Number pad not working after been in for repair

    I have a HP DV 9291ea laptop. It is a 17 inch model with a numeric keypad on it. The problem is, when the numlock key is turned on the keyboard number pad get's enables. I recently had the mother board changed by HP/Tarsus. I suspect that they didnt load the correct keyboard profile. They (Tarsus) said that should bring the laptop in and they will fix it (for free). I will do that if no one can help me here, Is there an easy and permanent fix for this problem?
    I can temnporarly get around it by doing the following:
    making sure the numlock is off.
    opening the on screen keyboard (start>programs>accessories>ease of access>on screen keyboard)
    a keyboard layout will opens on the screen
    I hold down the FN button down on the real keyboard and clicking the nlk button on the onscreen keyboard by using my mouse.
    the problem is is i press the numlock key again I will have to go through the whole process again.
    Anyone have any idea what could cause this or how to fix it permanently?
    If you might have a suggestion, please post it to me....
    This question was solved.

    This thread's been dead for a few years, but since I had to really search to find the answer to this issue, I thought i'd share what worked for me.
    In Win7, go to Start->Accessories->Ease of Access->Ease of Access Center, click "Make the mouse easier to use" and uncheck "Turn on mouse keys".  
    This fixed my problem on a HP G72 with integrated numeric pad.

  • Can no longer switch desktops using control-number on the number pad.

    Now that I upgraded to Mavericks, I can no longer switch desktops in Mission Control using control-number on the number pad. Only the numbers on the top row work.
    It's rather annoying, as it's much easier and quicker for me to swap desktops with my right hand (thumb on control, finger on numeric keypad) than left handwith the top row.
    Anyone else having this problem?
    Remember, Apple, a lot of folks still have full keyboards!

    changing the keyboard shortcuts does the trick!
    (Apparently Mavericks thinks the number pad numbers are different than the top row numbers. If you redo the shortcuts to use the number pad, the top row numbers no longer work with Mission Control)

  • Number pad doesn't work, and can't find Num Lock button

    My number pad has stopped working. I looked in the User Guide which says I have a Num Lock button, but I don't. Where is it located. Thank you.

    Solved - Never mind, I found it. I don't know why I couldn't find it last night. I'd looked for it before without finding it. For some reason, there it was this morning - where it should have been. I guess the computer elf came in an installed it. Thanks to anyone who may have thought of responding.
