Hi all,
I checked with "alt-key + shift-key + arrow-keys", that would work (alt/shift+arrow does not seem to have another function when the cursor is placed in the text). <Modify MoveIPToCellAtRight <KeySequence ~+/Right >> <Modify MoveIPToCellAtLeft <KeySequence ~+/Left >> <Modify MoveIPToCellAbove <KeySequence ~+/Up >> <Modify MoveIPToCellBelow <KeySequence ~+/Down >> Best regards - Tino H.

I don't have 9 anymore so I can't test it with 9. Send me the modify sequences you tried and I will test them. It could be a problem specific to 9, but maybe the syntax isn't exactly right.

But whether I left them alone, changed the <KeySequence > definition, or added a <Modify > command, those two MoveIP commands refuse to do anything. ...CellAtLeft and ...CellAtRight both work, as do MoveIPUpAndSelectText and MoveIPDownAndSelectText, but not the two commands I specifically want to use. I suppose I'll just have to use the move and select commands, because at least it's better than having to reach for the mouse every damn time. >> >> What's frustrating is that I *know* these commands worked in FM5.5.6, 6.0, 7.x and 8.0. Chalk up one mlore feature that got broken and never fixed when Adobe saw fit to impose their stupid and inconvenient (and buggy...) UI on us with version 9.0. Sigh... >> >> I suppose I *should* report this bug to Adobe, but every time I have done it in the past has been an exercise in ultimate frustration. Every time it has taken me between one and two hours to accomplish something that should have taken 10-15 minutes. And ever since software development and maintenance was moved to Bangalore, the only response I have ever gotten to a reported bug was that "we fixed the software to make it work the way it was supposed to work". Never mind that the new behavior was illogical and inconsistent with how other similar features worked, the mere fact that FrameMaker now behaved differently meant that a whole flock of my carefully designed procedures and processes no longer worked. I might have chalked it up to job security, but my employer (by acquisition...) chose to shut down their operation here in New Jersey. But that's a story for another day... >> >> Thanks for your efforts, guys. >> >> Fred Ridder >> >>> From: r...@rickquatro.com >>> To: Syed.Hosain at aeris.net; Alison.Craig at ultrasonix.com; docudoc at hotmail.com; framers at lists.frameusers.com >>> Subject: RE: Cursor key navigation in tables >>> Date: Fri, 15 Mar 2013 22:04:34 -0400 >>> >>> Open the FrameMaker/Fminit/Config/customui.cfg file in a text editor and add >>> these lines: >>> >>> <Modify MoveIPToCellAtRight <KeySequence /Right >> >>> <Modify MoveIPToCellAtLeft <KeySequence /Left >> >>> <Modify MoveIPToCellAbove <KeySequence /Up >> >>> <Modify MoveIPToCellBelow <KeySequence /Down >> -- ======== Heiko Haida Br?sseler Str. 37a 13353 Berlin ========= -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
