Standard Windows keyboard shorts in v8

Post by bwhitt »

I upgraded from v6 to v8 and standard Windows keyboard shortcuts no longer work. For example, I typically use ALT+F C to close a file quickly, or ALT+F A to do a Save As. Now it appears I must use my mouse. Am I missing something.

That's probably the Windows Ribbon workspace, which is default for Flare 8. See the help topic Switching Between Ribbons and Menus/Toolbars.


Good luck,
Leon

Thanks, Leon! That was it. Since keyboard shortcuts work in Microsoft products in ribbon mode, it never occurred to me that I would have to go back to menu mode in Flare to get that functionality. Oh well.

But at any rate, I'm back in business. Thanks again!

Anyone know a Ver 8 shortcut for closing the Project?
