Enhancement - Changing Key To Access Pull-Dow |
The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS
Problem
Solutions: Enhancement: A user requested that WordPerfect 5.1 include the capability to change the key that accesses the pull-down menus. Answer: WordPerfect's default options allow users to access the pull-down menus with either the Alt key or Alt-= key combination. Users can change this default with either a macro or the Keyboard Layout feature. With the Keyboard Layout feature, users can map almost any key to access the pull-down menus. The keystrokes below can be used to remap the Alt-= key to the macro (Alt-M): Keystrokes Reasoning ============================================================= 1. Ctrl-F10, Alt-M, Access Defines the Macro Pull-Down Menus, Enter 2. Right Arrow Positions the cursor after {DISPLAY OFF} 3. Ctrl-V, Alt-equals Inserts the {MENU BAR} command 4. F7 Exits Macro Define Users can assign the pull-down menus to a function key or to the ESC key using the Keyboard Layout feature. To do this, they should replace step 1 above with the following: Keystrokes Reasoning ============================================================= 1. Shift-F1, K, C or E Creates or edits a Keyboard Layout 2. C, ESC, description, Enter Assigns the pull-down menus to the ESC key At this point, users are brought into the Macro Editor, and should repeat steps 2-4 above. With either a macro or a Keyboard Layout activating the pull-down menus, users will not need the Alt key or Alt-= key combination to activate the pull-down menus. To disable the selection of the pull-down menus with the Alt key, use the Setup feature (Shift-F1, D, M, A, N). To disable the Alt-= key combination, use the Keyboard Layout feature and redefine that key as having no specific action. |
