Keyboard Shortcuts?

SamirD

I always knew about 'H' for hiding photos and right/left arrows for previous/next picture. But tonight I accidentally discovered some more. And then a quick search on the help system brought me to this very, very valuable page:

If you're like me and am hyper-fast on the keyboard, this is for you. My shoulder is burning right now from working for the last 14hrs, and these shortcuts are now going to make the next 100 hours a lot easier since I don't have to touch that pesky trackball. :thumb

Hope this helps some other keyboard warriors out there. :lust

Only one major problem I see. They don't take into account the control key. When trying to "select
all" on the page with cntl-a the lightbox comes up. Very frustrating when trying to see all elements on
a page like text same color as background and empty divs.

Hmmm...true, but isn't there something in the browser that allows you to nullify keyboard shortcuts? I know one version of Firefox made 's' as one of the Menu options, so the common vbulletin posting shortcut 'alt-s' ended up dropping down this dialogue box. But if you did 'shift-alt-s', it worked as normal. There might be something like this for the 'ctrl-a' problem you're experiencing.

Not sure if this works anymore. (Edit: looks like it does work)

var oldKeyDownFunc;
if (typeof(keyDown) == "function")
{
    oldKeyDownFunc = keyDown;
    keyDown = myKeyDown;
}

function myKeyDown(e)
{
    if (!e.ctrlKey)
    {
        return(oldKeyDownFunc(e));
    }
}

Sweet! Problem solved.

Now, if only the 'h' shortcut worked on the lightbox view. :cry The only time I'm having to switch views now is just to hide photos.
