Keyboard Shortcuts: Mac (Control-I and Control-C)

Anonymous — Thu, 14 Oct 2004 18:30:33 GMT

Our office has always used Control-I for "intersect" and Control-C for "fillet". We have not been able to set those using the Work Environment dialog box in ArchiCAD 9 (mac:usa). It seems those are reserved keystrokes within the application now. Control-I tabs you from field to field in the tools settings dialog box and Control-C close a tool settings dialog box. They do not appear in the list of Shortcuts under "Non-customizable shortcuts" that we can print out, but they sure seem to be acting that way.

Can anyone confirm that these are reserved, or is there a way to override them and preserve our familiar method of intersecting and filleting?

Hi!

I asked a Mac "expert" and we figured out that the problem is not with ArchiCad, but with your system preferences. There are two "skins" for OSX and they have different shortcuts.
You can change Your "skin" (I don't know the exact name of it) or you can set up the system preferences, and that can solve Your problem!
(Or there is a key combination, that I can't remember, wich override your system shortcuts while you set up AC's.)
