Hello, My goal is to know when a user presses the cut, copy, paste, or select all keyboard shortcuts and do some processing for each one. I tried listening for the keypresses, but only some keys are fired when the control key is down (apparently it would work only in the browser, except for IE). Then I was reading the Flash docs and ca...
In VS 2008 (and prior versions as well I believe) when in the code editor there are 2 comboboxes at the top of the editor. On the left is a Class Name combobox and on the right is a Method Name combobox. Those are the tooltip descriptions but are a little misleading for instance the Method Name box shows all the methods, properties, even...
Is there a keyboard shortcut to move tabs from one tab group to another in Visual Studio 2008? If not, how do I create a macro/command to do it? ...
We're building an app that makes use of hotkeys, it's a web UI to an existing windows app. Normally you can check that Keyboard.Modifiers == ModifierKeys.Alt However when you're using combos with Alt, the browser captures the Alt keystroke to see if it can handle it. The only way around this I've seen so far is to manually wire up t...
I am switching back and forth between eclipse and intellij and am really missing the ability to "right click" using the keyboard when I am in eclipse. I am running OSX Leopard. Does anyone know if this can be setup in the keys preferences, or is there a plugin that handles simulating a context menu at the current focused component? ...
I'd like to arrange things so that I have a chain of keyboard event handlers in my flex application, all of whom are queried when key down events occur. Basically, when a visual component is on screen, it is a candidate for handling a key press event. Something like this (clearly this is pseudocode): <application handles_keys="F5, F6"...
I'm thinking about the windows that pops up right after you type the opening bracket. EDIT: I meant the tooltip :) ...
I come from an Emacs background, and I'm used to typing ^H to delete the previous character. TextMate displays bundle help instead. I have not found a way to change this binding. Is there a way? ...
I'd like the main menu in my WPF app to behave like the main menu in IE8: it's not visible when the app starts pressing and releasing Alt makes it visible pressing and releasing Alt again makes it invisible again repeat until bored How can I do this? Does it have to be code? Added in response to answers submitted, because I'm stil...
As I'm not more of a developer than a designer I like to hand code my xaml rather than using draggy-droppy stuff. Since silverlight 3 - the design preview in VS2008 has disappeared. It wasn't that great but at least I got a visual representation of my markup without having to run the application. So I installed Blend 3 and I'd still li...
How do i setup application wide key listeners (keyboard shortcuts), so that when a key combination (e.g. Ctrl + Shift + T) is pressed, a certain action is invoked in a Java application. I know keyboard shortcuts can be set JMenuBar menu items, but in my case the application does not have a menu bar. ...
Not a repeat of the "Keyboard For Programmers" question, though that one is certainly worth reading. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/687/keyboard-for-programmers I know there are a few keyboards out there with programmable function keys, but let's say you've already found the keyboard of your dreams and it has no such feature. Ideal...
Hey all, i switched to Textmate and want to switch tabs with command + Tab (like in NetBeans). The menu command is Navigation - Next File Tab. But its not possible to set any shortcut with the tab key? Is this a general limitation? Thanks for help! ...
For my Windows application I'm currently looking for a standard (or at least widely used) keyboard shortcut for moving items in a Win32 listview. I've looked at MSDN's recommendations Guidelines for Keyboard User Interface Design but unfortunately, the topic isn't addressed there. I'm thinking about Alt+<Arrow Down> and Alt+<Arrow Up> (...
I would like to make a cheat sheet presenting the most useful (and time saving) shortcut for Eclipse CDT (C++). Can you share what are the most useful shortcuts that you use in CDT? Please, post only general shortcuts (available when doing C++) or CDT specific. ...
A friend is trying to write something not entirely unlike the old wintutor.exe from the olden days of Windows 3.1. It's meant to show some complete newbs the ropes of using WinXP, and the tutorial needs to respond to Alt-Tab and such for their own protection. How do you do this in C# Winforms? ...
I can use C-h c (describe-key-briefly) and type a key combination and it will return me the function bound to it. But I'd also like to type only a prefix of a key combination and have it list and describe all functions bound to key sequences starting with it, like "all bound keys starting with C-x". ...
I'm having a weird problem with Qt designer. I have the following shortcut for a refresh action:F5,Ctrl+R The idea is that on Macintosh, Ctrl+R maps to Command+R which is more intuitive and on Windows, F5 does the job. The problem is that only the first shortcut seems to be active. Is there a way for me to change the action's shortcut ...
I search the web a lot when writing code. When working in Visual Studio 2008, every time I hit the keyboard's "Web Home" key (you know the one on every multi media keyboard with the house on it) it opens a browser in VisualStudio - usually to something on MSDN. Not that I don't like MSDN, but I'd like to open a real browser on my second...
Background: I'm using SQL Server Management Studio 2008 and I have a query window open that contains multiple queries. Is there a keyboard shortcut that will allow me to execute a single query without highlighting the query I would like to run first? Some other SQL tools have shorcuts that run the query that is under the cursor, which ...
