Using an Outline - wanting shortcut for indent levels

I think the subject says it - is there a keyboard shortcut to increase/decrease indent levels in an outline?
Thank you
EDIT: So I've discovered Tab will decrease the indent level, now am only searching for a keyboard command to increase the indent level.

How to use the TreeControl's active item indent level

I am trying to query the indent level of an item in a TreeControl when I double-click the item. I have an event structure that captures the double-click event. In the handler, I read the Active Item:Indent Level property but it returns an error:
Error 1135 occurred at Property Node (arg 1) in Viewer Main.vi
Possible reason(s):
LabVIEW: The tree control's active item is not valid for this property.
Property Name: Active Item:Indent Level
Does anyone have code to show how to access the indent level for the Active Item?
Thanks,
-cb

smercurio_fc,
I may not be using the control properties correctly. The help for Active Item:Indent Level indicates that it will return the Item Indent value for the active selected tree item. The indent level indicates the depth in the tree at which the item exists. For instance, a value of 2 indicates that the item is a Child of a Child of a Root node. When I try to access the property, I get an error. I have attached a simple VI (8.2.1) that shows the error and the basics of how I was trying to use it. Can you point out my error or provide a corrected VI?
Thank you,
-cb

Microsoft Word 2011 Keyboard Shortcut for Indentation

Is there a keyboard shortcut on word for indenting/tabs back and forth. I know on PCs it is alt+shift <-- or alt+shift -->. what is it for mac?

do you know how to at least stop the time out circle?
I concur with the others about using the MS Office forums for this issue. However, with regard to the question above, there really isn't a way to stop the beach ball cursor. That cursor only appears when a particular app is not responding. Sometimes that happens when an app is performing a lengthy and intensive task and is temporarily too busy to respond, in which case the cursor will eventually go away on its own. Other times, this happens because the app has frozen, in which case the cursor will never go away on its own, and the app must be force quit (press command-option-esc, select the app that's not responding and force it to quit). Note that force quitting should not be done too quickly, as forcing an app to quit while it is in the middle of some intense task can cause any number of problems, including corruption of whatever data the app was working with at the time. Any time force quitting becomes necessary, there is a serious problem with the app experiencing the issue.

Can the editor use spaces instead of tabs for indentation?

I need to have spaces inserted into my code for indentation instead of tabs. "Use tab character" is unchecked under tools|preferences|code editor|code style|edit but to no avail. Any suggestions? Thanks.

But would this cause a tab to be translated as one space or would it still be a tab character? I think it will still be a tab character, which is a problem. I know MS Dev Studio can be set to translate tabs to spaces on the fly so if you hit a tab the cursor jumps 4 spaces and those spaces are spaces, not a tab. Thanks for the reply.

Shortcut for indenting bookmarks

Is there a shortcut in Acrobat X (Mac) to indent (and unindent) a bookmark in the bookmarks navigation panel?
I find having to drag and drop to ensure nesting of bookmarks is very fiddly and slow. It would be so much easier to select the twenty or so bookmarks in question (under different nested parts) and use a shortcut to nest them all at once
Thanks

No, there's isn't any shortcut that does that.

Using mail : no more shortcut for Contact's group ?

Hi,
I begin to use Mavericks/Mail (by the way, no Mail Discussion?), and I can't find how to send a message to a group that I created in Contacts (a smart group). I have to select each member to copy in the adress field.
Do I make a mistake? Is it a bug or a lost function (I hope not!) ?

Sorry, I hope you got the humorous side of my previous reply, I wasn't being flippant.
I agree with all of your points.
I've sent several feedback messages to IMO over the last few months including bug reports, feature requests and praise. I really mean it when I say that it's the best IM app.
Positives:
Clean interface
Dark background
Many protocols
Low battery drain when in background
Reliable
Audio/vibrate notifications on messages for unseen (not current) chat window
Multiple simultaneous connections allowed and all keep up to date
Online secure history of entire chat (searchable!)
Negatives:
Split-screen keyboard input not properly implemented (might be a prob with Swype)
I've tried (extensively) Nokia IM Chat, Fring, eBuddy, Palringo, Nimbuzz and Slick. IMO is the best.

AppleScript of Indent Levels in iWorks Pages

I'm getting inconsistent results from
tell application "Pages"
tell front document
set theIndent to indent level of paragraph 1 of body text
end tell
end tell
When it works, it returns an integer 1 greater than the indent level (i.e., 1-10 for indent levels 0-9, respectively. But that I can of course easily compensate for.
But frequently I get what seem to be random results. With the example above executing on a simple document, I can get change the result report by changing the indent level of paragraph, then changing it back.
I'm moderately new to AppleScript. Am I missing something, or is this a bug?
Thanks,
Bryan

Thanks for taking the time to reply.
I suspect I have a corrupt file. I can't reproduce the problem on any other document. I exported the ill-mannered doc to plain text, plugged it into a new document, and so far it's behaving itself.
Unfortunately, it's 1,300 pages long. At least I can script resetting the 8 different paragraph styles it uses according to content.
Which would go much faster but for this quandary...

Shortcut for Outline Levels / Indents on lists

Do we have have one?
Need a shortcut for outline levels (indent) while using
lists...
Kind regards,
AD

If I understand you correctly, you are either looking for a
way to indent a list, which is done through the Paragraph indent
tool, or you are looking to indent to another level within a list,
which is done through the List Promote/Demote tool. Both can be
found on the toolbar underneath the Menu bar.
Please let me know if this answers what you are looking for,
or provide further details on what you are wanting to achieve.
Thanks!

What is the point of having indented levels in course outlines?

What is the point of having indented levels in course outlines? It's not possible to add any materials or posts to this. I want to avoid having simply a long list of topics that are difficult to manage. When I create a topic in the outline, I can indent it, but then I can't add any posts to it as it doesn't even show up as a heading in course manager.
I've been trying to have some kind of logical organisation of materials, but the only thing you seem to be able to do is have a long list of topics.
Which makes me wonder why the possibility of indenting levels is there at all - it seems to be a completely worthless item.

I guess the point of the indented lists is to provide the user with some description of the topic’s contents. It's a standard convention in the table of contents of books. It might pay to break your course down into a number of courses if the list of topics is getting too unwieldy.

Using SUM BY or MAX BY for multiple levels

I was wondering if anyone knows if you can use the SUM BY for multiple levels e.g.
I am using the following at the moment: SUM("Fact.Value" BY Dimension.Level1), but I also want to sum the value by a different level, so adding a second 'BY' level.
I can't seem to figure if its possible. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi,
If I understood you correctly, yes, you can use for example: SUM(saw_4 by saw_1, saw_2, saw_3)
I hope this helps.

I want to make the keyboards numerical keys shortcuts for buttons.

I want to make the keyboards numerical keys shortcuts for buttons, without a modifier key is this possible ? e.g. press '1' on the keyboard button 1 is pressed on the GUI.

The number keys are not valid hot keys for our controls. The easiest workaround would be to use fhe F keys instead (F1 for button 1, etc.) However, if you are set on the number keys you could implement this with a panel callback. You could have a panel callback that monitors all keypress events and then, depending on the key pressed, calls the code that would be called with a button press of the button for that key.

Use Shell Script to create a keyboard shortcut for a installed Service

I'm not even sure if this is possible, but I hope someone out there has an answer!
I have an automator Application that I'm using to install a service to my Mac(will be deploying this to hundreds more). Id like to have this Application contain a Shell script that sets up a keyboard shortcut for the service after it is installed.
Anyone know how to do that?

You need automator to create services, as detailed in http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2241804 a four-parter by Sal Saghoian on *Automation in Snow Leopard*
This, describes old and new automator—services stuff:
http://www.reynoldsftw.com/2009/08/automator-and-finder-interactions-in-os-x-10- 6/
Alternatively, just save the script
*+tell application "Firefox" to activate+*
as an app, put it on the Dock, and click it to activate it. However, seems simpler just to put the FF icon on the Dock and a single click launches it. Why would you want a service or AS to do the same thing?
