Toggle slice layers keyboard shortcut

[On a mac with fireworks cs3] is there a keyboard shortcut to
toggle between the slice view and the regular view.

The numeric key '2' should do the trick.
Thanks

Help...is there a keyboard shortcut to toggle preview options?

Hi,
Briefly, I want to quickly toggle with a keyboard shortcut to see the changes.
For example, in a Levels Adjustment Layer, there are these options: Darker, Increase Contrast, Lighter, Midtones Darker, etc...
I want to preview these changes quickly.
It takes a while to click, drag down to each option to see the changes.
I hope the question is clear. Tried to do search on forum for previous answer to same question.
Thanks,
Hung

There's a keyboard shortcut now that the released version 4.0 is around. It's
Ctrl+/
In most cases it works OK. However I have had a situation or two in which the displayed web page had its own meaning for this shortcut... and the web page won.
I'm looking for a toolbar button that will toggle the add-on bar.

Keyboard shortcut to toggle a specific layer on/off regardless of what layer you are on?

I just recently discovered the keyboard shortcut for toggling the current layer on and off and it is an incredible time saver. Is it possible to create a keyboard shortcut dedicated to toggle a specific layer on and off regardless of what layer I am working on? I use Photoshop for painting and I'll have a layer set up like an overlay, with my line drawing set to Multiply blending mode at about 25% opacity. However, as the painting progresses, I need to turn that layer on and off continuously to be able to see my painting without the lines overlayed. I know I lose a lot of time having to go over and turn the eye off and then back on over on the layers pallete. I've tried setting something up as an Action, and had a shortlived success, but when I added new layers or moved them around after setting it up, it stops working. I have to say, it was my first attempt at creating an Action of any kind, so there may be a way to keep it working regardless of what I do to the other layers, I just couldn't seem to figure it out. Having the ability to somehow dedicate a key for quick toggling of my drawing layer would be another tremendous time saver. I've looked around and have not been able to find anything on this subject, so I apologize if it's already been covered.
Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!

Thank you so much for your quick reply. I haven't heard of Scripts before, so I will definitely look into that. I've only really been using Photoshop for a little over a year and I can see there is much to learn.
Thanks again for your help!

Is there any keyboard shortcuts for navigating through Fireworks layers? Yes there are!

Since I couldn't find a way to post a reply on the original question I decided to create my own discussion on this.
The "alt" key is your best friend when working with layers.
Alt click on show/hide, lock/unlock, and expand and collapse arrows will apply to all.
Example: Lets say you have 20 layers, all unlocked, it is starting to become extremely difficult to select just a single item from a single layer. If you alt click any layer, all your layers will become locked, then you can easily just unselect the layer that has your content in it. Alt clicking again unlocks all your layers. (*note - sometimes sub-layers remain locked even when the parent is unlocked).
Again this works with the show/hide and the expand and collapse toggles as well.
In addition I wrote a command and assigned a shotcut key to it that lets you do several very useful layer interactions with one shortcut key.
My command lets you:
1) Copy all your selected objects (regardless of what layer they are in),
2) Creates a new layer
3) Opens the name layer dialog so that you can name your new layer
4) Paste al your selected objects into your new layer.
You can find this comman here with instructions how to install it and how to set up a shortcut key for it). *Note this command is used with John Dunnings (johndunning.com) layers command.

Some other commands that can make it easier to work with layers:
Frame and Layer Utilites: contains a number of commands for working with layers, like hiding the current layer in all other states but the current one, or moving the layer up or down in the panel. Any of the commands can be assigned keyboard shortcuts. http://johndunning.com/fireworks/about/FrameLayerUtils
QuickFire: lets you quickly match a layer by typing part of its name and then hiding it, locking it, etc. http://johndunning.com/fireworks/about/QuickFire
Solo Selection: hides all elements except the selected ones, so you can work on just a part of the document. Run it again to make everything visible again. http://johndunning.com/fireworks/about/SoloCommand
I'm also working on a command that will you navigate the elements in a doc via the keyboard, which should be ready soon.

Custom keyboard shortcuts and editing multiple layers in Flash CS4

Hi, all -
CS3 -> CS4 transition newb here who's getting increasingly frustrated with the new motion tweens; however, for this project, I'm working in a 3D space and require using them, so I'm dealing with this bit by painful bit. I found the tip about Split Motion, but first question: how do you apply Split Motion across several layers at the same time? I have six different tweens, and in CS3, I used to be able to shift-click or click-drag across frames and apply a command to all of them (for example, hit F5 to add frames), but Split Motion is requiring me to right-click on each and every layer. This is really laborious, and I worry about future animations that might be more complex.
Similarly, I tend to add custom keyboard shortcuts to each of my Flash versions for commands I use frequently and don't want to right-click a menu for (such as "add motion tween") - however, I can't seem to find where to create a custom shortcut for either that, or Split Motion.
Any and all help would be appreciated as I muddle through this. Honestly, guys, I WANT to like the new version and there's so many added features, but it's hampering my workflow so bad I want to pummel it with sticks.

Hey there,
I definitely hear you about Split Motion. There is an enhancement request for supporting multiple layers, and adding it as a keyboard shortcut. The first one is tricky, but the second one is not. I think there was hope that splitting motions wouldn't be necessary much (especially since you have to be careful when doing so when eases are involved), which is why the eventual need for more functionality related to split motion was realized a bit late in the schedule.
Now regarding other operations, such as you mentioned F5 to insert frames - that and other operations (inserting certain types of property keyframes, F6, and so on) work just fine.
You can apply a shortcut to Create Motion Tween in the custom keyboard shortcut dialog. Not all operations in the program are available though (most context menu items aren't), which is why unfortunately why we don't see Split Motion yet.
It might be possible to avoid Split Motion though with another workflow. What are you using the feature for? Just curious in case I can help.
Jen.

Toggling Between Open Emails -- Keyboard Shortcut

Sometimes I have several emails open at once. The only way I know how to switch between them is to go to the dropdown Window menu. This is a little cumbersome. Is there a keyboard shortcut for toggling between open email windows?
And while I'm at it, is there one for toggling between open Safari windows? I love the Command-TAB way of switching between applications and am looking for something similar.
Thanks.
Paul S.

The question is marked as answered, but I don't think it was the answer you wanted. I often have several emails open and want to toggle through them without leaving the keyboard. The Exposé method works, but is not a keyboard shortcut.
Here is how I got it to work:
In System Prefs under Keyboard and Mouse under Keyboard Shortcuts make sure Keyboard Navigation is checked and under that check "Move focus to next window in active application" and then "Command+ tilde" will work!

Keyboard shortcut in Leopard for autohide dock toggle not working?

Hi all,
I have a question about a keyboard shortcut in Leopard.
I've recently started auto-hiding my dock, using the checkbox in system preferences. I find this gives a nice clear screen for most situations, but would like a shortcut to effectivly toggle that checkbox on/off.
I read about command-option-D but this doesn't seem to do anything. I tried killall Dock, but that didn't help.
I found some reference online searching to TextExpander causing problems, but I do not have that installed (couldn't find any reference of it on my machine).
One thing that does work is ctrl-F3 which brings the Dock up from hidden. Only thing is as soon as you click on an application it dissappears again. What I really want is to toggle the auto-hide option on and off with a keyboard shortcut.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks,

go to system preferences->keyboard&mouse->keyboard shortcuts. make sure that the shortcut to auto-hide and show the Dock is enabled and is set to commandoptionD. those are the defaults but maybe yours got changed or disabled for some reason.

Are there keyboard shortcuts for navigating Fireworks Layers?

In Photoshop, 'option-[' or 'option-]' allow you to select up and down layers from the keyboard, are there equivalent shortcuts in Fireworks?

By default, I don't think there are any shortcuts for this. However, John Dunning created a series of custom Frame and Layer commands, including Go Up and Go Down*. These are free, and once they've been installed, you can assign keyboard shortcuts to them (under Fireworks > Keyboard Shortcuts...).
http://johndunning.com/fireworks/about/FrameLayerUtils
You might also like to know that FW has a Select Behind tool (it's underneath the Pointer tool). I personally don't use it, but it allows you to click on an object on the canvas, and progressively select the items beneath that object.
*A caveat regarding the scripts: The "Go Up" and "Go Down" commands don't seem to be working on my older version of Fireworks (FW8). Also, I forgot that Photoshop and Fireworks use different terminology. What's called a "layer" in Photoshop is called an "object" in FW, and what's called a "group" in Photoshop is called a "layer" in FW. Therefore, John's layer commands may or may not allow you to move up or down the objects within the layers, but they should allow you to move up or down the layers themselves (a.k.a. folders).

Keyboard shortcuts to toggle "markup" in Preview

I know about [control] + [command] + H, [control] + [command] + U, and [control] + [command] + S. And these work.
But I find myself needing to click the markup button (toggling it on and off) multiple times per page while reading. I wish there was a keyboard shortcut for this. I tried making one in system preferences for just Preview: [control] + [command] + M. It doesn't seem to work.
Any suggestions on how to create this shortcut?

You can use a shortcut application like Keyboard Maestro, SimpleKeys, Shortcuts or Macro Recorder. I use KM extensively for adding "canned" replies to posts, opening apps, etc. It can handle the kind of task you're looking for. However, it may be overkill for just that one task so look into the others. Go to MacUpdate.com and search for "keyboard shortcuts" and "keyboard macros" to get other candidates.
Currently QuickKeys is not compatible with Mavericks. I had used it previously but like KM so much better.

Toggle Play and Resume System Variables with Keyboard Shortcut

Hey Folks,
In many popular video applications (YouTube, Vimeo, Hulu, etc), the Spacebar is used to Play (and then) Pause the movie and I want my project to stay consistent with this.
I'd like to have a single keyboard shortcut (maybe to a hidden button on a Master Slide) that,Plays or Pauses (depending on what is happening) a slide video (or the entire project really), and I want that shortcut to be the Spacebar.
I will be having slide videos (user clicks an Image to go to a slide video, not event video). Playbar will be visible during this time.
In trying to accomplish this, I see that cpCmndPause is an available System Variable. I would assume cpCmndResume is the counterpart to that, or is cpCmndPause=0 the counterpart?
Anyone have an idea how to accomplish this?
Thanks,
Tom

Spacebar cannot be assigned as a shortcut key. probably because it will be reclaimed by browser. The toggle part is easier.

Keyboard-shortcut to toggle between the shutdown options?

Is there a keyboard-shortcut to toggle between the shutdown options? On SnowLeopard control-option-command-eject does the trick to shutdown (Mac@work), but on Moutain Lion it switches me to the loginscreen.
I found that the shortcut in ML is control-eject (with a popup), but haven't found how to switch between the button's on the popup.
The popup suggests restart - go to sleep - cancel - shutdown.
Spacebar does nothing.
thx in advance,
Applecompot

in reply to my own:
Found it 'Full keyboard access' turned off in my systempreferences.
Tab and shift-tap.
Anyway thanks if you did read the discussion and was looking for an answer.

Keyboard shortcut to toggle Transparency Grid?

Dear guys, is there some keyboard shortcut to Toggle the Transparency Grid?
I'm aware of the little icon-button in the Composition Window to get this, but I would like to make that through a keyboard shortcut, if possible.
(I ask here because don't find an answer in the regular shortcuts docs)
Thanks for your help :-)

Nope.

How can I create a new keyboard shortcut to toggle load images automatically preferrably with one action?

I switch the load images automatically selection back and forth in order to save on my 5GB monthly data plan. Is there a utility that would allow me to create a macro of multiple keystrokes to do this with one action? Something like the macro function in Excel? Or is there another way to do this more easily than going to tools, options and clicking on the box? I don't see a shortcut for this item in the standard keyboard shortcuts list
