In Revolution 1.1, there is a bug with the command keys to go the next/previous card. 
You press command-3, and you go forward two cards. Press command-2 and you go back two 
cards. This can be annoying. I have a fix for this. But first, the 

-------------=========== BIG DISCLAIMERS ============----------------

I HAVEN'T TESTED THIS THOROUGHLY.

I DON'T GUARANTEE THAT IT WILL WORK.

YOU COULD BREAK REVOLUTION.

YOUR COMPUTER MIGHT SPIT CIDER IN YOUR EYE.

FOR ALL I KNOW, AN OFFICIAL FIX COULD BE RELEASED RIGHT AFTER I POST THIS.

-------------=========== END BIG DISCLAIMERS ============----------------


That said, you must have a registered version of Revolution to do this, otherwise you 
won't be able to save the script change you make. This would be possible to get around 
by copying the changed button, but I'm not doing that so far -- ask if it's really 
important to you.

Here is the procedure. Be very careful. Making a duplicate of your revlibrary.rev 
stack (in the global environment folder), or just backing up your whole Revolution 
install, would be a good idea.

1. Open Revolution.
2. Open the message box.
3. Enter the following and execute it:

edit the script of button id 1003 of card id 1002 of stack "revlibrary"

4. On the View menu, select Go To Line
5. Go to line 759
6. Line 759 should be:

   switch pWhich

7. after line 759, type the following lines:

    case "1"
      break
    case "2"
      break
    case "3"
      break
    case "4"
      break

8. That section of the script should now look something like:

  if the shiftKey is not down then
    switch pWhich

    -- these are the new lines
    case "1"
      break
    case "2"
      break
    case "3"
      break
    case "4"
      break
    -- that's the end of the new code

    case "E"
      if (the selObj) is not empty then edit script of the selectedObject
      break
    case "="
 
9. Save the script.
10. In the message box, enter the following and execute it:

save stack "revlibrary"

11. Close Revolution.
12. That's it. You should be done.

regards,

Geoff
