RE: Is it possible to set 2 commands to 1 keyboard shortcut

I am wondering if it is possible to set 2 commands to 1 keyboard shortcut.
I have a script that saves copies of InDesign pages to the desktop. I would love to set the keyboard shortcut for this script to be the same as the Save shortcut (Command S), which saves the InDesign pages into our content management system. However, I can't seem to get this to work.
Any suggestions?

No, you cannot get a kbsc to do two things at the same time.
But…you can set it run a script.

How can I set up a custom keyboard shortcut for volume control?

Hi all,
I use my black MacBook at work, connected to an external monitor and external keyboard. I'm looking for a way to set up the F buttons on my external keyboard as volume control, just as they do on my laptop keyboard. Looking for F3 to F5 to be volume mute, down, and up, respectively.
I tried going into Keyboard Shortcuts in System Preferences but since there is no menu item for volume control I can't seem to add it. Anyone know how I can go about doing this or what I'm missing?
Thanks
Mike

paste the following into Applescrpt Editor (it's in /Applications/Utilities)
<pre style="
font-family: Monaco, 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;
font-size: 10px;
margin: 0px;
padding: 5px;
border: 1px solid #000000;
width: 720px;
color: #000000;
background-color: #ADD8E6;
overflow: auto;"
title="this text can be pasted into the Script Editor">
set curVolume to output volume of (get volume settings)
-- work out the new setting
if curVolume < 96 then
set newVolume to curVolume + 5
else
-- can't go over 100
set newVolume to 100
end if
-- and apply it
set volume output volume newVolume</pre>
this script will increase volume by 5 (out of 100) any time you run it. you can adjust this of course. save the script somewhere.
You can use a 3rd part app launcher to bind a keyboard shortcut to it. I use Butler. there are many others: Quicksilver, ikeys, quickeys, Spark, Launchbar.
this will work the fastest.
If you don't want to use 3rd party tools for this you can make a service using automator but that might be a bit slower than the first option. open automator. it will give you a pulldown screen wiuth the choice of what you want to make. choose "service". set it to receive no input and be available in all applications. add the following "run apple script" action to the service
<pre style="
font-family: Monaco, 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;
font-size: 10px;
margin: 0px;
padding: 5px;
border: 1px solid #000000;
width: 720px;
color: #000000;
background-color: #ADD8E6;
overflow: auto;"
title="this text can be pasted into the Script Editor">
on run {input, parameters}
set curVolume to output volume of (get volume settings)
-- work out the new setting
if curVolume < 96 then
set newVolume to curVolume + 5
else
-- can't go over 100
set newVolume to 100
end if
-- and apply it
set volume output volume newVolume
end run</pre>
save the service, go to keyboard system preferences->keyboard shortcuts->services and make a shortcut for the service you just created.

How can you set up a custom keyboard shortcut for Next Tab and Previous Tab?

You can do this in Chrome because there is a top menu item for it, and OS X supports easily rebinding of keyboard shortcuts that are in the main menus.
Is this possible in Firefox? Using a two handed shortcut to switch tabs is annoying when you want to keep one hand on the mouse!
Thanks!

Keyboard shortcuts
* https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Keyboard%20shortcuts

Is it possible to assign a keyboard shortcut to a Master Slide?

Hello,
I have been looking into an approach for assigning a keyboard shortcut to the application of a master slide ("Bullets" for example). I tried the keyboard shortcut assignment in System Preferences, but that did not work. I did a quick Google search to see if Master slides can get applied via apple script and then maybe assign a keyboard shortcut to execute the apple script, but that was not too fruitful.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!

I too have gone through the Premiere Elements 13 keyboard shortcut and cannot find what you seek for the command Applied Effect and a corresponding keyboard shortcut.
http://www.atr935.blogspot.com/2014/10/pe-13-keyboard-shortcuts.html
Until proven other, I do not believe what you seek is possible in Premiere Elements with the Project Assets/Edit area monitor/Applied Effect Tab/Applied Effects Palette.
However, there is a possibility for command = Project Assets and a keyboard shortcut to be assigned. Would that work for you? If so, please see Edit Menu/Keyboard Customization/Application/Window and its Project Assets command awaiting a keyboard shortcut.
Have you considered...
a. dual monitor system
b. shrinking Project Assets
Please review and consider and then we can discuss this further if you want.
Thank you.

Is there (or can I create) a keyboard shortcut for the command "export"?

is there (or can I create) a keyboard shortcut for the command "export"?

Keyboard Shortcuts are created in the System Preferences app, Hardware section, Keyboard, Keyboard Shortcuts tab.
Select Application Shortcuts on the left.
Click the "+" sign on the right and in the dialog box that pops up, enter: "Export..." and your preferred key combination. Here's an example:
Keep in mind that when you enter the name of the action in a layered menu, such as File > Export..., or Share > Export..., you are only going to enter the last menu choice, not the higher levels.

Trouble setting up keyboard shortcut close tab groups

Have tried at least three different key combos using workspace, keyboard shortcuts.
Have set them up successfully but they don't seem to want to close tab groups.
I have set up other special keyboard shortcuts (like flatten image) which work great

Does it work if you use Insert Menu Item and choose Window>Properties for an action?
Then you could assign a function key for the action.

Is it possible to set the stateof a command button

I want to call a function when the user presses a command button (left click), then wait until he releases the mouse button, then call a second function.
Here is the code for EVENT_LEFT_CLICK:
CallFunction_1(...)
GetRelativeMouseState(panel, control, 0, 0, &mouseLButton, 0, 0);
while(mouseLButton)
ProcessSystemEvents();
ProcessDrawEvents ();
GetRelativeMouseState(panel, control, 0, 0, &mouseLButton, 0, 0);
CallFunction_2(...)
My Problem is, that the button does not chage its state to "pressed", so it appears to the user that he has not clicked on it.
Is there any possibility to set the command button th the pressed state?

The reason for this is that the LEFT_CLICK event has not been processed yet. We allow you to "swallow" any event to basically eliminate the built in effect of that event. In your case you want the normal effect of the LEFT_CLICK event to occur (button appears pressed on the panel), but you also want to launch a loop to check when the mouse has been released. This is easily done through posting a deferred call. A deferred call allows the current event to be completed and then calls the deferred callback after that. So your code would be changed to:
In LEFT_CLICK,
CallFunction_1(...)
PostDeferredCall (funcName, (void*)control);
Then write a function "funcName" with prototype:
void CVICALLBACK funcName (void *callbackData);
and code:
void CVICALLBACK fu
ncName (void *callbackData)
int control = (int)callbackData;
int mouseLButton = 0;
GetRelativeMouseState (panel, control, 0, 0,
&mouseLButton, 0, 0);
while(mouseLButton)
ProcessSystemEvents();
ProcessDrawEvents ();
GetRelativeMouseState (panel, control, 0, 0,
&mouseLButton, 0, 0);
CallFunction_2(...)
This should solve your problem.

Is it possible to set BIOS settings over a command line?

Hi,
is there a possibility to set Toshiba BIOS settings over a command line tool?
We have hundreds of Toshiba Notebooks and would like to activate Wake On Lan.
I know there is hwsetup, but as far as I know this GUI doesn't accept parameters...
We would like to propagate new settings over a script.
Any solution for this ?
Thanx

> is there a possibility to set Toshiba BIOS settings over a command line tool?
Something like that is not known to me and I doubt this could be possible.
As you said there is an preinstalled Toshiba HWSetup tool which can be used to change some certain BIOS settings. But this is only one way to change the BIOS settings from the Windows OS.

SPAD - Spool Server - Set Command Id.

Dear Experts.
I set up a printer. This printer spool write spool orders in the operating system. Orders are generated spool in background jobs running various programs.
Example:
zjob
    Step 1 rsusr100n
    Step 2 rsusr003
    Step 3 resauselect1
So in "Set Command Id" I have defined a command that copies the files (spool spool orders) in another directory.
Example:
/ usr / bin / cp & F / usr / sec / control / & m / &F;
So far the spool server was static and the process has worked correctly. But by substituting a logical server not all orders are copied to the spool path defined in "Set Command Id".
When we changed the physical server by the logical server spool orders that come through the same application server that ran the background process are copied to the path.
Why does this happen?
Thanks and regards. David Sanchez.

Dear experts.
I think that it only possible to define "Set Command Id" when "Host Spool Access Method" is L type ("Print Locally Using LP/LPr" ) and Spool Server is phisical host.
So every spool order generated in same host and can be processed by "Set command id".
In other way:
- If Spool server is logical server then some spool orders can not be processed by same host which executed de job. The command included in "set command id" is executed in one application server and it is local proccess.
- If host access method not equal L then there is not possible to define "set command id".
One solution is n jobs with one step. Or create one develop which merge all spool orders.
Thanks and best regards.

How to set command action for each item in the popupmenuimage

In my canvas application,i used images for popupmenu.Now i have to set command action for each item in that popupmenuimage.I dont know whether it is possible in canvas or not.Can anyone tell me the solution for this .

Buttons is typical of a c/s application, or, in case of Web Forms, a Java applet. Instead of buttons, you have to use hyperlinks.
See:
http://otn.oracle.com/products/reports/htdocs/faq/faq_migration.htm#346
The hyperlink wil have to be to a URL that does the insert in the table. This can be a mod_plsql procedure, for instance.

Possible to set Preview Checkbox 'On' as Default?

Hi there again Illustratophiles!
I spent this morning setting up my function keys to Illy menu commands (check out Microsoft's Wireless Keyboard 1000; it works on Mac and Win and has 20+ extra configurable keys in addition to the function keys -- I'm on the Mac and use it for application launching, expose, find file, and setting function keys in multiple applications). Still can't map any tools to function keys (grumble grumble) but that is another post entirely.
I also spent some time configuring one of my New Document Profiles, and am curious if it is possible to set all the Preview checkboxes to On as the default setting. For instance, if I am editing an existing global color swatch and want to see the results before comitting I have to click the Preview checkbox in the dialog box. Or, if I am in the Move dialog box. Or if I am using one of the Effects. It would save me some time if this is possible.
Cheers in advance and all that.
-g-

Open the New Document Profile you want and uncheck the Hyphenate box in the Paragraph panel. Then save the file, overwriting the original. As for the first part, most of what you are describing are handled by .aip or plugins and are essentially a compiled software that could only be changed by the originators. Not to say it wouldn't make a good feature request.

Disk Utility: Is it possible to set volumes NOT to mount at start UP?

Is it possible to set up volumes so that they do not automount on start up (all disk utilities I have used before (Hard Dsk Tool Kit, Silverlining) have this capability)?
If so can you explain how to do it?

To prevent their eDrive from mounting, Micromat uses a script that runs during the launch process to dismount the eDrive. So the drive/volume is actually mounted for a few seconds and then dismounted by a Unix command in the script.
If you will open Terminal and type "man unmount" you will find how to use the unmount command to dismount a volume which is likely what Micromat uses in their script.

Is it possible to set up a shortcut to print a specific document?

I want to print a document with just a command or shortcut. I don't know if its possible.

I was able to set up actions in Illustrator CC to perform those functions, which can them have keyboard shortcuts associated with them. I'm not sure if it would work in CS3, though.

Hi I have two questions. I am using NAS 4.1 and was wondering is it possible to set a different session timeout for different users? How is the session timeout set? Thanks, YS

<i>I am using NAS 4.1 and was wondering is it possible to set a different session timeout for different users?</i>
Um, there is no such thing as NAS4.1.
I'm assuming that you mean NAS4.0 (maybe NAS4.0sp1?). If so, then the session timeouts are specified in the session section of the NTV configuration files.
AFAIK, you can specify session timeouts on a per user basis.

Is it possible to set up multiple iTunes accounts on a single computer?

is it possible to set up multiple iTunes accounts on a single computer?

If you do it with a single user account, you will receive update notifications for purchase made on both IDs regardless of which one you're using at the time. That's slightly frustrating as you get the notification BUT you can't actually update! In any event, separate user accounts on the computer is the cleaner way to go.
